Lion Park

 On the 5th of January we decided to visit the Lion Park.

We were greeted at the gate by Gizmo who inspected each of the cars,

We then drove around the herbivore section of the park

We saw buck

and zebra

ostrich

buffalo

We then moved on to the carnivore section of the park

                                   

There were the most beautiful white lions

      

     The next section held a pride of fairly young lions     

This lion decided to check out the cars

He went right up to the window of the car in front of us to look inside the window

he then thought about what to do next before coming over to our Venture

he was so close to us that this was the only picture we could get of him!

Lastly we went into the wild dog section.

We then headed back to Cub World.

They had aardwolf

Meerkat

baby hyena

baby buck

leopard cub, who was so tired he fell asleep

black leopard cubs

there is an opportunity to feed the giraffes but they were staying out of reach near the trees

they did have a newborn baby giraffe who was only about 2m tall, so cute!

cheetah

there were the year old cubs

We were allowed into the enclosure to play with the cubs

this 2 month old cub was only interested in chewing my wheelchair

We then went for a delicious lunch at the resturant and while we were there a big thunderstorm blew up and we got totally soaked. It was such a fun day and we all enjoyed it thoroughly!!!
