Since the photos are in high resolution, blogger will only let me upload 5 at a time. I could change the resolution but I'm just too lazy. So, I will break up the post to upload all of the photos I thought you'd all like to see.
We headed up north to the Rusk, TX area this past weekend for a quick family getaway. We stayed at a cabin located on the property of Cherokee Trace Drive Thru Safari. The area was just beautiful. As a guest of the property, we had full access to the safari even during the hours that it was closed to the public. The only request that they have is that you stay out of the fenced area after dark so neither the guest nor the animals get injured. We arrived too late on Saturday evening to drive through so we planned on driving around on Sunday morning. However, an incredible thunderstorm came through overnight with lots of rain and high winds not to mention lightening and loud thunder! The kids slept through it. C slept more than I did. I was up about every hour or so. I enjoyed the storm but I was beat!
Sunday morning we were unable to drive through the safari because some of the roads were flooded! However, quite a number of animals came to the fence so we were able to see them and feed them. There was a tree limb down nearby and the camel devoured the leaves. She wasn't interested in the pellets we had! We didn't get to see her up close but she was cool to see anyway.
You can see the camel pretty clearly here along with a few deer. To the camel's left by the blue barrels is an emu!
Emu now on camel's right.
