There are a couple of outings towards the end of our trip that I did not get to share with you. This particular afternoon, we took a walk to Impala Park.
View as we walked into the park
As we passed by the warden's office we noticed the plaque stating in all caps, "NO BRIBES". lol We've found a park in Kenya with standards and rules that they expect you to obey!
The leopard was only interested in stalking Lyla and Rachel. She thought they looked tasty.
We intentionally went at feeding time. JP was scoping out some ribs for our dinner.
These lions were very protective over their meal. Every now and then a passerby would annoy him and he would roar and charge this flimsy chain link fence. I was fairly uncomfortable with this situation. JP made the point that we do not have to outrun the lions. We just have to outrun the other people around us. Nice.
The kids called this tree their "ship". They are the pirates that don't do anything.

Me and Chester Cheetah
This guys asked us if we wanted a photo with the cheetah. He said, "just don't show fear". Really?!
We're not sure this guys even worked for the park. He probably shared the photo fee with the guy that let us in the gate.
When we got back to the Pages home, Jonathan read a yahoo article about a woman that was attacked by a cheetah that same day. Maybe this wasn't the smartest thing we've done, but it was cool.
