More FL stuff

Guess where me and R went today? To the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary!!! It wasn't far. We rode the bikes there, and it's free to get in, so we just rode our bikes there, parked them, and started on the "trail" with the animals. The animals were in small enclosure's, and not really big ones like The Wild Animal Sanctuary.

Unfortunately they didn't have any tigers or wolves.. but the closest to that was cougars (the only big cats there) and foxes. They had all kinds of animals there. The ones I remember were: Cougars, Foxes, a bunch of different kinds of owls, all kinds of birds ranging from pelicans to bald eagles to vultures to parrots and song birds, turtles, an alligator, a crocodile, bobcats, skunks, raccoons, deer, opossum's, snakes, and that's all I can think of right now. They also have a gift shop, and I bought a Wolf Crossing sign for my bedroom door, a little really pretty rock with a tiny raccoon on it for my grandparents who gave me a $100 for this trip, and a fox postcard to send to my family. Here are some pictures from the sanctuary. Sorry, the pictures are not in order, their actually backwards lol.

Ain't it coolio? :):) I had fun there, but it was HOT! Later that afternoon we went to youth group, and for praise and worship they played a video of Hillsong performing, and it's like the music at Youth Camp, and it made me and R really really miss camp so badly!! We wanna go back!!! I can't wait till next year :) The praise and worship is the best part of camp, and being with my youth group.
After youth, Luke, Z, R, and I went to Chili's to eat. I'll post pictures of that later... I've put so many pictures on here already, I don't feel like putting on anymore.... Tomorrow me and R are probably going to the mall, more bike riding, and modeling (for fun) at the park in our new clothes :P And then Friday we're going to Disney World!!! Can't wait, it'll be my first time. But we only get to go to one park.. Luke and Z are going to Epcot, and Me, R, and I think the rest of R's family are going to Typhoon Lagoon.
Ok, well that's it for now, ttyl!!

Until next time, my friends!
