My Safaris

Would you like to know about my three safaris?

The first one was to the Danielle Cheetah Breading Farm. And I got to pet some meerkats and I got to see some cheetahs and then we went to a special place where we could see two lion cubs. I was actually able to hold the lion cubs and play with them. We also got to pet a 4 year old cheetah named Ola (which was Heaven for me!) And then we went to a reptile farm where we learned so much about birds and reptiles. We got to hold snakes, pet a gecko, pet more meerkats, and see some crocodiles.

The second one was Addo Elephant Park. And we got to see elephants. That was the second animal that we got to see. The first animal that we saw there was a black backed jackal. We also got to see different types of birds, warthogs, dung beetles (not pushing a piece of poo!), zebras, a buffalo, and red heart beasts. That is all that I can remember that I saw. Addo was very exciting.

The third one was Seaview Lion Park. And we got to see some more red heart beasts, zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, lions (of course) and two Bengal tigers. And then we went up to the reception center (with restaurant and bathrooms). There was a board walk that you could tour and there were cages with crocodiles, leopards, lion cubs that you can play with too. You had to pay to play with these cubs but at the cheetah breeding farm, we didn't have to pay a single penny (or rand).

I had a very fun time and my mom and dad spoiled us a lot! Thank you for following!

Questions and Answers

Dear Terp
yes I do like papa and my favorite food is fried rice. How is your family? What is your favorite type of onion? How is your dog doing? What does your dog do a whole lot? Do you have a garden?

2 children from Beautiful Gate were brought back to their mother today. I will miss the 2 children who left. How was all of your days today? How do you like your jobs? Are they good ones or bad ones? My job is being one of the maintenance men. It is very fun being a maintenance guy. I am very happy that I came here. If I had not come here I would not have met the maintenance men or a whole bunch of other friends. Thanks for reading.
Love,
Elijah
