Safari Park

Since Kyleigh's day care was closed this week, Janice took the week off and the five of us drove down to Escondido to visit the Safari Park (San Diego Wild Animal Park).  We stayed at a Holiday Inn Express in Escondido and while there, Devin gave Janice one of her birthday presents.  It's the Lego Big Bang Theory Living Room and somehow, Grandpa and Kyleigh managed to "help" build it.

She did finish it, but I neglected to get a picture of the final product.

Tuesday, we went to the Safari Park.  David had hurt his knee earlier in the week and wasn't able to go with us though.  We saw tiger cubs playing just like big kittens.

Kyleigh got to ride the carousel and chose to ride a tiger also.

And of course, she had to mimic a tiger.

 Kyleigh and Devin each measured themselves against a full size gorilla and it looks like Kyleigh has some growing to do, Devin not so much.

Janice fed the lorikeets because Kyleigh chickened out after she'd bought the food.  Janice didn't enjoy it that much and also got pooped on.  I think she didn't expect such an enthusiastic bunch of birds.

Janice and Kyleigh (mostly Kyleigh) decided they needed a foot massage, but I'm not sure how much good it did Kyleigh since her legs weren't long enough.

Devin and Kyleigh pretended to be bats. 

And then became hanging bats.

 We took some pictures with animals.

 

 Kyleigh wore herself out pushing my wheelchair so she chilled while waiting for our lunch to be ready.

Janice took most of the pictures of the actual animals with David's camera and it hasn't been downloaded yet.  We all had a good time and will probably return in a few years.
