The kids and I loaded up and headed to Pine Mountain, Georgia, today to the Wild Animal Safari with a small group from our church. The girls had been to Wild Animal Safari before but this was my first time. If you've never been I have to say it is something to see. You can rent a Zebra Van and drive through their 500-acre park. Animals, everything from Pigs to Giraffes, come right up to the van to be fed. The vans are a sight. It's an older model van, painted in zebra strips, with bars in place of the windows. 
Here's our group hanging out of our Zebra Van.
I have to tell you when that first big animal came up to our van and his big tongue rolled out of his mouth inches from my hand, not only did Steven start screaming, but I was not far from it.
Wow. That thing is scary.
This was a common sight throughout the mile long ride. They even sold slobber towels in the gift shop. Also, you have the choice to drive your own vehicle through the park. But beware, we saw one car driving through and when they got tired of feeding an animal they rolled their windows up. Well, that animal just went to licking their window. I bet they had to find a car wash when they got done.
We all had a ball. After the drive through the park, we went through the Walk-About which was a small zoo. I didn't get a picture of it but Sydney brought paper and pencil so she could write down every animal we saw. She is so funny. It was a long trip to Georgia and back but very enjoyable with good friends and lots (and lots) of laughs.

Sydney hanging out of the window of the van. Can i come in?
1. Rent a van (did you happen to see the horns on some of these animals)
2. Bring baby wipes or a hand towel (slobber will happen)
3. Buy lots of food and try not to feed it all to the animals in the begining. You have a mile long ride with tons of animals.
Blessings to all.
