Best Day of My Life!!!
Yesterday was amazing. We had the day off and the animal crew was given free passes as well as private tour of the discovery kingdom animal park. wow- where do i begin. first we got to play with dolphins. they did tricks and we even got to pet them. they feel like wet hot dogs. haha. next we saw the african and asian elephants. we were up close with them, touching them, hugging them, feeling their ivory tusks. how cool. after the elephants we got to see a killer whale! i have never seen one- so i was super excited for that. we watched the vet do an xray of one of his teeth, and afterwards he did some jumps and flips with a dolphin. we got a big group picture with him too. after that we had a private show with sea otters and cali sea lions. we got to take pictures with the big sea lion. everyone barely put a hand on him- i hugged that sea lion like he was my best friend. :) next we got to feed giraffe, play with a 6 month old baby cougar, feed an anteater hunny, touch a blood python and play with a baby zebra and camel. i dont think anything will ever compare to how cool yesterday was! after i got back from the park i went to the oakland a's baseball game with some friends. we got seats in the bleachers, ate too many $1 hot dogs and drank too many $8 beers. what a blast. life is good!
