As I made up this blog post title, I am reminded of a great saying from my grand-daughter Lena, after her camping trip in Maine this Summer: "We lived like animals, except in tents." That pretty much sums up everyone's camping experience.
Breakfast at IHOP. We have been thinking about the hash brown potatoes, and the bacon and eggs, and the sausages, and the pancakes, so we went to IHOP for breakfast today. I ordered the Breakfast sampler that has everything in it: eggs, bacon, sausages, ham, and a hash brown potato. I am quite happy with what I ordered. Everyone else ordered what they like.
In the afternoon, we decided to go to the Wild Things (animal shelter and rescue.) This place is also an EARS (Elephants of Africa Rescue Service) shelter. It is almost like a zoo, with animals that are discarded by owners or retired from movies. Joseph the Lion is their oldest and most famous lion, the one that was the model for the big lion in the Lion King.
Paula opt for the "feed the elephant" option when we bought the tickets. At the end of the tour, she get to meet the biggest elephant in the herd and fed him some carrots.
Sue's yummy steaks, with baked potatoes and grilled baby portabella mushrooms.
We ate outside at the
patio. Manny joined us, showing us how to achieve total relaxation.
The flame bowl was interesting. It appears to be a bowl of lantern oil, but can burn without wicks.
