Shanghai Wild Animal Park





I (Kirk) was able to take some time off work to go with Elizabeth and her class on their field trip to the Shanghai Wild Animal Park. First stop was the Seal show where we saw the seals did a lot of interesting tricks. Next they got back on the bus and drove through the wild animal section. There were giraffes, camels, lions, bears, tigers (including white siberian tigers) and deer. There was an interesting sign as we drove through that said if our car/bus broke down during the trip we should whistle until help arrives (see the pictures). This was comforting. We were able to eat lunch with Elizabeth's best friend Chrystal and her mom. After lunch we got to see the pandas and we were able to feed the Lemurs. They were pretty crazy (see the video). They climbed all over people. Elizabeth got to pick out something from the gift shop afterwards. She picked out a small white tiger and called her "Miley" after her new favorite singer. We both had a great day.
