The Wild Animal Park

I spent my day today shepherding 9 young adults and 1 other staff member around the Wild Animal Park. It was pretty fun. If you ever feel the need to go to the Wild Animal Park or the San Diego Zoo and don't necessarily want to pay for it, each one has one day in the year where they don't charge admission. That day is Founder's Day. It's the celebration of the day that they opened, and it's not very well known. The Wild Animal Park's founder's day is in May, and the San Diego Zoo's is in October.

Here are a couple of pictures. I can't put many in, because I can't post ones that have my kids in them.

They have a bunch of lion cubs at the Wild Animal Park. Did you know that lion cubs sleep about 20 hours a day?

I love Giraffes. They have a lot of great overlooks at the WAP, and in this picture I'm standing on one overlooking the giraffe area. The great thing about the Wild Animal Park is that there is a lot of space for the animals to roam around in, so you sort of feel like you're walking around in an African Safari.
