Animal Kingdom Pictures By: Stella Age: 9
Hello everybody! This is me, Stella! Mom did the pictures up there but I would like to tell you a little bit about our trip to animal Kingdom! We went to York Maine. We had Grandma and our other dogsitter come over to watch Cora, our puppy. I will put up a picture of HIM in a minute. Just if you don't want to watch then umm.... ah.... you can just cover your eyes and scroll down 'k? Hang in there folks.
Well we had them come over and we headed out for Animal Kingdom.
When we finally arrived there our friends who were supposed to be coming were not there. We waited for about half an hour and then Mater picked up her cellphone and called our friends. We found out that they were lost and we had to wait 50 minutes before they would arrive! We were kind of annoyed and so we hurried off to use the restrooms and bought a couple of snacks. We waited fifty minutes and got our tickets but it was wellllllll worth the wait as we walked in the gate to
ANIMAL KINGDOM!
This, GULP, is our puppysitter. Wellllll. No, he didn't get payed, so I guess he can afford to be a little umm... GOOFY?
This is Taurus' (Baby Boy's) favorite party. Yidia (Lydia) the elephant. He was very excited and on the trip home he said, "I YOVE YIDIA!" (I love Lydia). ;)
Here's one more photo of YIDIA the elephant painting....
Goats, Goats, GOATS!
I know, I know! I already have this pic. up but it is so cute! Look at Tert's face! Agree with me???!!!
Same with this one! LOL! ;)
I was amazed with this as I had never seen a real live toucan!
In butterfly kingdom a butterfly landed right on my back. It was cool. I got kind of freaked out at first though. WHEW!
Leo was especially proud of this picture as he did a report on the American Alligators.
I wanted a picture with this bird although, SORRY, I don't know what it was called! Any suggestions? If so then please comment....
This is me with the deer. We were amazed at how close we could come to see the deer. We weren't supposed to touch the antlers but well, it was sooooooo hard and so some tempted little fingers touched the soft fuzzy antlers. It was soooo neat!
Trying to feed the deer with Daddy...
A CAMEL!
We were excited about this one because Mater has actually been in Egypt and rode on one of these! NEAT!!!!
A zebra! NEAT!!!!!
Wow! This was neat! What? You don't see anything? Well then let me give you a hint. It's lazy, slow, ugly, and moss grows on it! BINGO! A SLOTH!
On the way out of our fun trip from animal kingdom we took these pictures! What a wonderful day!!!!
