Albino Lion
After I blogged we went on a trip in a trip. The day was blue and you could hear the lions. The lions were hungry (very hungry). We were headed in their direction the wind was in our faces and the sights were good. Our tour guide was at first not explaining much but then it began. We got 10 feet away from them. They could eat 400 kg. a day, one of the lions was looking at me and thinking "yumm lunch" but in my case I am more like a tooth pick. There were 12 of them. Today was feeding day, we got to watch it all ( they ate cow). The sun was setting so we started to head home but we made one more stop.We stopped at the albino lion cage. We can safely say my dad made a new friend. The travelers were watching with suspense to see what the lion was going to do. And sure enough the lion did something it did something surprising. The lion ran at my dad ( but there was a metal fence in-between them . My dad ran like a little girl (it was a little funny) . Today was one of the best days ever!!!!!!!

How fabulous that your first day of adventure in South Africa was one of your best days ever!!!! What a way to begin. I for one am glad that the lion was eating his cow and didn't need a toothpick or for that matter any dessert. The female lions are the hunters and from what I remember, after the kill, the male lion eats first, then the female and then the young-uns get what's left. Does that seem right? Sorry your Dad had such a scare, but all's well that ends well and your "funny stories" begin. Hopefully you are taking great photos to go along with your great stories.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Sarah, your writing is so beautiful. I LOVE the way you open a sentence with "The day was blue and you could hear the lions." Wow! That is really special... and I mean "special" in a very good way.
Love you love you love you. On to new adventures tomorrow.
Love Grandma JOANIE
