Picture A Day - Nov 16, 2010

I've already posted this pic on Facebook, but I never blogged about it...so it's a repeat for some, but not others. :)

I took this pic a couple of years ago at the San Diego Wild Animal Park.  I love that place!  My favorite animal amusement park (as opposed to the zoo or Sea World, etc.)....I just love the outdoorsy feel to the whole park and the trails, and most of all the Savannah area - it's breathtaking when you see it and all the animals just roaming around.  They have this "Sleep and Snore" program there where you can camp overnight in their tents (already set up, really nice tents).  They have different programs and activities for different groups, and so far my son has been too young for all of them...but I think he's almost at the age requirement.  Super pricey, but it sounds like so much fun! :)

This picture is also available for sale in my Etsy shop, where I've just lowered the price on all my fine art prints by about 35%!

That is an amazing picture. We have a place here that is a wildlife sanctuary. Its not big but she has 2 cabins in the sanctuary that you can rent and listen to the lions, wolves and such at night. Its fun.

Your photo has captured the strength of that beautiful lion. Have a great day, glad I stopped by - it's been a while!

This is one beautiful picture, I just love the texture!

What a cool thing it would be to sleep and snore at the zoo. I adore critters...being a farm chick and all! Heeehehehe!

Have a most marvelously blessed day!!!
