San Diego Zoo - Safari Park

The Safari Park was Enormous! 

There were literally thousands of animals that we didn't even get to see.

However, our fav moments were watching the baby gorilla "do tricks" (walk around clumsy-like), and riding the Safari Tram.

 

Casey bravely handed his phone over to our six-year old budding photographer for the entire tram ride, so he could take pictures. I think the best way for you to see the Safari Park is through the eyes of Connor & the pictures he took:

 Oh..almost got this close-up of the Mama Giraffe!

 Totally NAILED the baby though...

 Hum, not quite sure what we are looking at here...?

 We didn't pay extra to ride the hot air balloon, but the kids spent the day monitoring it going up and back down (and wishing we were in it, I assume).

 I'm starting to realize that Giraffes are still Connor's favorite animal about now.

 Although, you may not appreciate this picture of the spiky-tree, I happen to remember it's importance (to Connor). Safari Park Fun Fast Fact #1: This is the Giraffe's favorite tree & they use their long tongue to get the leaves out between the spikes-Ouch!

Now, if that doesn't make you want to jump on a plane to see a 

World. Class. Zoo., I don't know what will.
