The Wilds

Saturday we headed to "the wilds" which is an animal conservation area run by the Columbus Zoo! It's a two hour drive from our house but it was well worth the drive!
It was 75 with a breeze and it was the perfect day for a safari. We took an open air tour that took us around the 15 square mike reserve! They have so many animals and we had the best day!
We saw zebras, rhinos, ostriches, cheetahs, bison, and lots more amazing animals.
We had an exciting adventure with the camels.
They were so close to us and rubbed the mirror off our bus
Then the donkeys tried to eat the rubber gasket! It was hilarious and they had to radio a zookeeper to retrieve the parts.
We had several stops to see more animals in their habitat
This cheetah kept talking to the boys
It was a beautiful location and was amazing to be in Ohio with all these amazing animals around.
It was a 2.5 hour tour so Colin took a break
Then he fell completely asleep
 
Not our Christmas card picture but such a funny picture of our family
My sweet boys

We had a wonderful adventure and can't wait to go back in the fall
