The Queen Elizabeth National Park



In January, before school started, we went on safari at a national park.  Click on the blue words above to go to the website.  We drove from Kabale to this park.  We saw a hippo, saw the sign, went on a boat ride, ate at a nice hotel, rented a guest house, saw lots of animals, yadda, yadda, ya....
"Who'sthere?"


NILE CROCODILE and elephant


Cape Fear Buffalo

Eagle and eagle wearing bird for a hat

yawn, had a nice nap...

did you know warthogs kneel to eat?

African Kob

We came to our house and saw this!  Can't see that in your backyard everyday!

This is me and Emma Shae laughing and Mom is ordering Strawberry Fanta, yum, yum...

We saw many cute mongeese

We got stuck in a herd of elephants.  Right in the middle--hit the jackpot!

hardy, har, har, that's funny

Lions.  We got too close.  These were far away, but what we didn't know was that there were a few in the bush beside until another visitor warned us! My mom got scared and took girls to car, but dad and I stayed.

Our house with a water buck in the yard.  Like I said, can't see that in your backyard every day!

Cool lizard on our porch that we found.

Birds eating leftover food.  Look at sign below this picture.  

They can't read!

Here are some other sweet little mongeese.

Hammerhead duck.

Some other tourists spotted a leopard.  Their guide had seen the leopard scat (poop) on the road and tracked it!  They helped us spot it out, get it spot?

It didn't like being in public, so it went away behind the bush

Here's the national bird, Crested or Crown crane

Here's the landscape we saw

Here's another landscape

monkey

Right at the end, a guide came and took us to see a lion hidden in the tree.  Right now I have the worst case of hiccups...hic, hic. hic.I really do, seriously.



This movie is about 4 elephants hic, fighting.  At first, it's hic, 2 elephants fighting, hic.  Then they stop and 2 other elephants fight, hic.
