Safari with ERJ kids

Yesterday, I went with a Family Christian Stores James Fund group that was visiting us for the week to go on a field trip with the kids from ERJ - El Retiro Juvenil. We went to my favorite field trip location on the entire planet - Bioparque Estrella. At this "zoo" you can go on a safari. As you can see from the photos - it's a little intense.

Luis feeding Nelson the giraffe and laughing hysterically
The camels are a bit aggressive. You never know what they'll do

The giraffes are probably the most gentle animal you encounter there

they look like velociraptors when they come straight at you for food - i feel like i'm in the movie Jurassic Park

this is me petting David the giraffe

The kids had a great time but I think it was the Americans on this field trip who had the experience of a life time - one they'll never forget haha.
