AFRICAN LION SAFARI

Today I got to go to African Lion Safari with work. I have been two other times, but today was the best time I have had there. We had the best time going through the Game Reserve. The best part you can probably guess was the monkey area. We had a lot of monkey's climbing on the van. They would walk up the hood and sitt on the mirrors and the roof. One as we were watching it in the mirror as it sat on the roof decided to take a dump, which slid all the way down the side of the van. Of course it enjoyed the ride so much that he tried to come out of the monkey area on the roof of our van. I was glad he wanted to stay, because I wanted to see what they would do to get the monkey off of the van. As we came close to the gates there was a girl there with what looked like a big cane. You could see her yelling at the monkey to get off of the van. We watched her go to the one side of the van and the monkey would go and hang off the other side of the van. Then she would go to the other side and the monkey would do the same thing. Then we saw another girl come out with a huge water gun and I guess the monkey's don't like that as the monkey got right off of the van. We really enjoyed our show. We went and saw the birds of prey show, and the elephant show. These were really good, it is amazing what they are able to train these animals to do. Our last stop was a cruise on the African Queen.
