Happy Easter!!!


I hope everyone had a great Easter Sunday... Jesse and I went to Lion Country Safari. First we took the driving tour through to see all the animals walking around. They said keep your windows up at all times but you know how that goes... lolol
Once the driving part was over there was an area to park your car and walk around. First we went through the kids section with rides and putt putt. I fed the Lorikeets. I hope I spelled that right. Jesse and I both fed the Giraffes. Their tongues were rough and slimy and we ended up with lots of slobber.
We walked the rest of the park and saw all the animals. If you are not careful in the petting zoo the goats will kick you when you stop feeding them.

A day in Jupiter Florida...


We left early on Saturday and headed north to Jupiter. Our first stop was the Busch Wildlife Center. This is where injured animals are taken and cared for.. They had many different birds, turtles, panthers, otters, snakes, gators, deers, fox, and several others. The center is free to enter with donation boxes throughout the walk. There is a nature boardwalk and a nature trail.

After a coffee break at the bookstore we drove to Blowing Rock Preserve. This is something I have never seen nor heard of in Florida. There were huge jutting rocks right on the shore. We ate lunch and walked on the rocks.
