Elephants

Elephants

Today I had a day off so I went with one of the girls to the elephant orphanage! :) It was really good! They take in orphaned elephants and help them grow and then take them back in to the wild! We got to pet the elephants as they were being fed, SMA Gold baby Milk! Imported from England! How weird! This was so much fun as they were all so cute and tiny wee elephants! They loved playing and going into the water and getting all muddy! One spat some mud at me which was fantastic!
 
After the Elephants we went to the safari walk, this was amazing, it is like a board walk that raises you up above the national park to allow you to see most of the animals, we saw most of the big 5, saw a lion, hippo, rhino, buffalo, leopard, cheetah, monkeys, baboons, Hyena and loads more!
We got to see a lion climb a tree, as well as a leopard that was sitting right in the top of the trees! :) Also we got to see an albino zebra!! haha it's like a black Zebra! :P instead of being white and black it looks slightly like a giraffe, but I always get them mixed up! :P After the animal watching we decided to get to a hotel and hit the pool/bar!! =D Such a good day! =]
