PET-A-PET ZOO - ROER'S ZOOFARI - RESTON , VA!!!!!!

I LOVE ANIMALS!!!!!

I LIVE IN NEW YORK NOW , BUT I AM FROM RESTON, VIRGINIA.  I WENT TO VISIT.

MY SISTER AND I WENT TO A PETTING ZOO CALLED ROER'S ZOOFARI. IT USED TO BE CALLED PET-A-PET ZOO.  THEN IT CHANGED HANDS AND NOW IT IS WHAT IT IS. 

THE FIRST THING I DID WAS TALK TO THE CAMEL GUY WHILE I WAITED FOR THE ZOO BUS TO TAKE US TO DIFFERENT ANIMALS WHO ATE THE VEGETABLES WE HAD IN OUR CUPS (CARROTS!!!). WE FED BISON, LLAMAS, AND MINIATURE DONKEYS.  THE EMUS WERE ELUSIVE!  THE ZEBRAS WERE IN THEIR OWN ISOLATED PENS BECAUSE APPARENTLY THEY BULLY OTHER ANIMALS!  WHOA!

AFTER THE BUS RIDE, MY SISTER AND I DECIDED TO DO THE CAMEL RIDE.  IT WOULD HAVE BEEN KIND OF SCARY IF IT WASN'T FOR THE FACT THE CAMEL LIKED ME BECAUSE I FED HIM EARLIER WHILE I WAS WAITING FOR THE BUS. I LOVE YOU CAMEL!!!!!!

WE WENT TO FEED AND PET THE GIRAFFE. HE WAS CUTE AND CUDDLY AND HUNGRY.  HE WAS SO EAGER TO BEND DOWN AND TAKE OUR CARROTS. MY SISTER FORCED ME TO TAKE MULTIPLE PICTURES OF HER FEEDING IT.

WE FED AND PET THE GOATS. THEY WERE LOUD. OVERLY EAGER TO EAT ALL YOUR FOOD AND TO BE SURE THAT NO ONE , INCLUDING OTHER GOATS, WOULD GET IN THE WAY.

WE COULDN'T FEED THE WARTHOG OR CHEETAH (FOR OBVIOUS REASONS).WE TRIED TO GET CLOSE TO KANGAROOS, BUT THEY WERE'N'T INTERESTED IN ANYONE BECAUSE IT WAS JUST TOO HOT. THEY STAYED IN THE SHADE.

I WANTED TO SEE THE LEMURS, BUT MY SISTER WANTED TO LEAVE. 

BY CUTIE ANIMALS!  YOU WERE GREAT HOSTS!!!!!!

I WENT TO LONDON BEFORE BREXIT!

I WENT TO LONDON BEFORE THE BREXIT. 

I DON'T KNOW IF THINGS WILL CHANGE AFTER BREXIT, BUT I REALLY LOVED IT BEFORE . THIS IS NOT MY FIRST TIME IN LONDON. I FEEL SO COMFORTABLE IN THIS COUNTRY. I LIKE THE PEOPLE AND THE VIBE. SO, I WENT AGAIN!

THIS VISIT WAS A COMBINATION OF BUSINESS AND A STAYCATION.  THAT WAS THE LEVEL OF COMFORTABLENESS THAT I FELT. I WANDERED THE STREETS, SIPPED COFFEE, CHOMPED ON ENGLISH FARE, ET AL.  

I DID NOT LIKE THE FACT THAT NO ONE HAD TASTY SALAD DRESSING. YOU SEE, I AM A RANCH DRESSING LADY. I PUT RANCH DRESSING ON EVERYTHING AND ENGLAND WOULD NOT LET ME DO THAT.......WHY??!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LIKE THE PARKS AND THE SUBWAY. I LIKED THE SHOPS IN PLACES LIKE COVENT GARDEN. I LIKE COOL CAFES AND MYSTERIOUSLY DARK BARS.

I NEEDED TO BE REJUVENATED AND LONDON REALLY HELPED WITHOUT ASKING TOO MUCH OF ME TO DO IT.

THANKS, LONDON!!!!!!!!!!!
