Field Trip: Virginia Safari Park and Natural Bridge Caverns
A fellow homeschooler and I went and visited Virginia Safari Park and Natural Bridge Caverns today. If you live in Virginia or are planning a visit this way, there is tons of stuff to do in Natural Bridge. The cavern is not the best Virginia has to offer, but the Safari Park was spectacular and fun!
The first animals we met at Safari Park ( a drive through park where the animals come to your car and eat from feed buckets that you purchase from the park) were the llamas.
This guy was the welcomer and the first to say hello.
This guy was very inquisitive and wanted to know just how much food we had...
And this guy said we weren't going anywhere until we had given him an appetizer!
This guy wasn't convinced I didn't have anymore food for him.
Katrina and Erin got to pet this one...they were thrilled!
Sharee was enamored with the Watusi and we learned that the huge horns (that I couldn't get a picture of) were for cooling this magnificent creature. He was very polite and even slobbered on my friend to say thanks!
This regal fellow has a nice rack. I was unable to figure out which of the critters he was from the guide book.
This is why people adopt Vietnamese Pot-Bellied Pigs...they are soooo cute when they are babies!
Crocodile Jack!
The giraffe was winking at us for those great giraffe crackers we fed him...he wanted just one more!
Zoo keeper Erin feeding Llamas, Jack and Katrina
Katrina feeding three baby goats. She got very upset when the older goats would butt them out of the way so they could have the food instead.
Bear attacks Jack and Katrina...I was so afraid!
