Giraffes!

Me and my daughter went to the zoo today. Quite the trip at about 1 3/4 hour’s drive each way. I am in a lot of pain right now but I enjoyed it very much. I’m not going to let fibro win, so I will still do stuff that makes me happy, never mind the pay back.

Anyway, back to the zoo… one of my favourite animals we saw today were the giraffes. Their faces are so interesting and they’re so unbelievably tall. I’ve seen giraffes before, but it still seems so mad how tall they are!

Here are my favourite shots of giraffes from today:

There was a high viewing area where you were at the same height as their heads, so it was amazing being on their level and a great opportunity for photos.

In the gift shop afterwards I couldn’t resist a cuddly giraffe. He’s not terribly realistic, but is cute, cuddly, and good reminder of a lovely (but exhausting) day out!
