Original Park
Sarah and I are sad today as Stephen and Anne left this evening. Sarah got a bit teary at the airport. She was still sad when we got home and over dinner. Fortunately, she was able to eat her dinner.
We had a good weekend. On Friday we went to the cinema. We saw the 40 Year Old Virgin. It was ok. We had a laugh in places and enjoyed the pic n mix. We had a lovely day on Saturday. We had been disappointed not to see any animals the previous weekend and when a friend of Sarah's gave us a map to a safari park we decided to cheat a bit and went to Omega Parc in Quebec. I was particularly intrigued by the Original Moose shown on the map. How could it be the original one? It wasn't until we got to the park and saw the signs for the animals in English and French that we realised moose in French is Orignal. I wasn't impressed now that I knew it was just some ordinary moose.
Most of the animals are free to roam around and come up to your car and poke their heads through the windows. Sarah got a fright when this happened and with a loud screech she jumped onto Anne’s lap. This made Anne laugh so much that she nearly went into labour for the second time this holiday. We had a picnic and walked through the fields and woods feeding deer. We really enjoyed seeing deer, bison, raccoons, blue jays and woodpeckers up close, but felt a bit sad because the black bears and wolves had small enclosures so that they were visible from the cars. Also we didn’t see a beaver and the moose (mooses) were lying down. Not that we’re being unreasonable.
