Wildlife Safari !!

Canada Geese and Zebra

April 29, 2014

I convinced Russell to stop on our

way home to drive through this 

wildlife park. Their purpose is:

Wildlife Safari is dedicated to conservation, 

education and research of native and exotic wildlife.

 It is our commitment to educate the public

 about the status of animals around the world.

Besides the Zebras and geese we saw

lots of other animals from all over the world.

Here are only a few of the photos I took.

Enjoy!

Watusi Cattle

on these cattle and how heavy they must be.

The cattle did walk rather slowly.

A-Z 2014 Challenge W is for Wheels

There are no actual Spanish words that begin with the 

letter "W". There are a few words used in Spanish 

that begin with "W", but they are words borrowed

 from other languages such as English. 

For example: "winsurf","walkman" and "western". 

Because of that I will be using an English word today!

W is for Wheels

While driving north on I-5

we pulled off the freeway 

and stopped so I could get

these farm photos. 

By the way the Spanish word

for wheels is "rueda".
