Wild Adventures with Mike

Last week Mike and I went to Columbus GA and along with going to Callaway Gardens which is a must see for anyone in that area or within driving distance, Mike came across a place that looked fun. It's called Wild Animal Safari. We had already walked a ton in Callaway Gardens and I was feeling a little pooped and offered to just head home. But Mike said lets go see what it is. I'm so glad we did. We paid for the tickets and bought some food for the animals. We were given the choice to rent one of the parks cars or drive our own. That seemed harmless enough until she said, many of the animals have sharp horns and we don't cover damage to your car. Mike quickly said, okay we will take one of yours.

After seeing our adventure car and laughing about it off we went. It was just okay at first.. we saw pigs, small cautious fallow deer. We had to throw the food to them. The giraffe was way off in the distance and that was a disappointment to say the least especially when we were able to look back and see other cars feeding it.

Anyhow the adventure was about to begin. We came across some buffalo. These were no ordinary buffalo these were huge DIRTY buffalo and they had no problem sticking their heads all the way into the car to get food. A lot of our photos have only mouths or a bulging eye because that is what we saw and we couldn't get back fast enough. The one buffalo whose tongue is to the side loved Mike. He was huge and a bit scary looking which left Mike's left arm and shirt slimmed. I thought I was going to die laughing and couldn't snap the pictures fast enough. Mike's words.. lets move on to see what big animals are on your side of the car! That he did. But I was wise... and as they came roaming to my side... I rolled the window up which left slobbers on the window.

We had so much fun and this is a great place to go if you find yourself near Pine Mountain Ga. We think we might take the kids with us when Brittany and Robby come in Dec. One lesson learned we need to buy one bag of food for each person. We had way to many fun animals we couldn't feed because we ran out of food.

If you ever want ideas about fun stuff to do Mike and I have plenty of them and we are finding even more places to go check out. Thanks for being such a great adventuresome husband Mike. I always have a great time when we travel together. It off to our next adventure!
