Lake Tobias

We went to Lake Tobias on a perfect rainy day.  What I mean by that is, yes, it rained, but it was still warm and we had a great time.  Lake Tobais is a wildlife park about 30 minutes from here.  It is such a great place.  The kids loved it. 

Their favorites were the petting zoos.

Even though they weren't supposed to, the girls working the petting zoo let my boys hold a guinea pig.  As you can see they were thrilled.

We all loved the new babies in the petting zoo.  They were so tiny and fun to hold.

Of course there were the crazy looking alpacas.  Lily loved feeding them.  She loved feeding all the animals.

The biggest hit was the Reptile house and show.  The boys are really into reptiles right now, so being able to touch a real crocodile and Burmese Python was a really big deal to the kids.

One of the highlights at Lake Tobias is the safari tour.  They put you in these old school buses with the top cut off and drive you out to see more crazy animals, and I mean crazy!  They have Beefalo, (cow buffalo mix)  Aoudad Sheep, Buffalo, Eland, Elk, Emu, Fallow Deer, Llama, Red Deer, Rhea, Scottish Highland Cattle, Sika Deer, Texas Longhorn, Water Buffalo, Watusi, Whitetail Deer, Yak & Zedonk.  I would love to show you pictures of all the animals but that is a lot of pictures.  You will just have to go there yourself.

How often do you actually get to pet an Elk?
