The Living Desert

Today we visited the Living Desert.
It was such a fun way to spend the day as a family!

Within minutes of entering the park, Beau found meerkat statues...

I guess you could say he really liked them.

Seeing this cheetah was the h.i.g.h.l.i.g.h.t. of Daddy's day.

I think he mentioned "getting to see one that close" 15 more times.

These two had no clue how close they were to something...

that could've eaten them for lunch.

...yes, he was there too!

My 2nd favorite thing about this picture: Archer feeding the giraffe.

My FAVORITE thing: Beau sticking out his tongue like the giraffe.

Doesn't look like we're in California, does it?

Lunch Break.

"Raise your hand if you're excited to be sitting on a warthog?"

...

"I AM!!!"

A mama and her boys.

Seeing this "animal" was the h.i.g.h.l.i.g.h.t of MY day...

Headed home for naps...
