From Road Trip to Safari

We got to take a few days off and go to Oregon. Sharlee & Casey (Greg’s sister and husband) were there and we had a graduation party we could attend so we decided to take a few days and go. We left Friday after work and drove half way to Bend. We left early Saturday to drive the rest of the way. When we got there we found out that everyone was going to Roseburg to meet Braydon and Mariah for dinner. I thought this was a great idea because I had wanted to go back to the Safar there we’d gone to years ago and it happens to be in Roseburg. We went and had pizza for lunch and afterwards we loaded back into the car and headed the couple of hours to Roseburg.

I think the safari is pretty cool. You get to drive through and see animals you’d never otherwise see. This time the zebras were really close, I love them and got a lot of pictures.

Fallow Deer. We did decide to get a cup of food. Even though it was later in the day, we weren’t sure the animals would be interested in more food. A lot of them still were. Jaelee fed them and one sneezed right in her face, ha.

After the cheetahs that’s the end of the driving portion. We parked and went into the walking area. It was getting towards the end of the day so there were not many people there.
