San Diego: Part 3

On one of our last days in San Diego, we hit up the Safari Park!  More animals and more fun!

Watching the bird demonstration...Jaden loved seeing the bird do little tricks.

Check out those feet...I've never seen anything like them!

This snake really wanted to eat something outside of his cage...He was eye-ing something.  

Eek!

And then there was this Armadillo...haha poor little guy.  He would not stop doing this for as long as we were standing there.

They had a fun little petting zoo area with nothing but goats.  It was still really fun (and clean!), and Jaden loved brushing them and felt like he was helping.

Feeding the goats with leaves that were already on the ground.  We weren't sure if we were supposed to feed them those, but we did, and they seemed to like it! hehe His little fingers :)

Waiting for the bird show to start.  This was really fun, and Jaden loved watching the birds fly right over us.  You probably wouldn't think so, but birds are actually pretty smart!

These little guys were called "The Three Stooges".  The music that went along with them running in and out of little trap doors totally fit them!

Safari Time!!

I love baby elephants!

The last thing we did at the Park was the cheetah run!  What a cool thing to experience!  We were able to get a video of her running, but we started it a little late, because she bolted out of her cage so fast!

We were able to freeze some frames from the video...these turned out kinda cool.

After her run, they walked her down the track, but she had to have her best friend (which happens to be an old dog) walk with her.  They said he keeps her calm so she doesn't get nervous and helps her to feel secure.  Pretty cute huh?

San Diego was such an amazing trip! We are so grateful for the chance to have gone down there and spend some good, fun, quality time with my parents.  I love you so much, Mom and Dad.
