Virginia Safari Park – Part 2

The Safari ride was about an hour long, so Dave and I took a lot of pictures. In Part 1 I posted the pictures from the beginning of our ride and this post contains the rest of the pictures from our safari adventure. There is not much to say about the ride. I am sure, that most of the animals are well known to everyone. The main actions that happened there were driving slowly through the park, feeding the animals and having FUN! Here is a beautiful Eland Antelope in the picture below.

We could see the giraffe station from the road, so we are close to the exit.

And of course, llamas were waiting for us. 🙂

Where do you think you’re going? The llama just blocked our way to the exit.
