Zoo Safari- Nov. 11th

9:00 am and we aboard the bus for a 50 min. ride to an awesome Zoo Safari.First we took The Safari. We saw bears, lions, cheetahs, white tigers, elephants, giraffes, and ostriches wandering around in the wild. And the only thing separating us from the dangerous animals was a small wire and a nearby guard who was placed at each location to guard us if anything were to go wrong. Pretty scary, but cool. The remainder of the zoo was walked and was much like home, but much larger! No reptiles because they eat them.The best parts were seeing the pandas and watching Alissa feed a baby white tiger a bottle! Yes I said she fed a tiger!!! Their were 10 pandas very close up and personal. We watched them be fed and two were fighting over the food. We also saw a school girl almost get knocked to the ground as a giraffe pushed her with it's strong neck as she was feeding it. Our zoo would never allow you to get this close and personal with the animals. Elephants stood with mouths open waiting for you to throw them bananas. We also got to see the baby nursery where many cute babys were either in small pins or in little incubators. It was a pretty exciting day! Sense we didn't really snack to much at the zoo because of the food. We ate an early dinner at at an new Italian restaurant a couple of blocks away from the hotel. We had Cesar Salad, pizza, and spinach filled ravioli, which faith pretty much inhaled. Its amazing how much this little girl eats. I think it's because they didn't have much to eat at the orphanage. This was definitely the closest we've come to ''real food'' sense we've been here. We can't wait to go home!!!
