Wildlife Safari!













Last weekend we headed down to Winston, Oregon, to go to the Wildlife Safari. We drove down to Roseburg and spent the night there before heading a bit farther southwest to Winston the next day. What should have been a fairly uneventful night, ended up with Henry getting VERY ill through the night - throwing up with a high fever. Once we finally got some Tylenol in him and relieved his fever, we were able to get a couple hours of sleep in the early morning hours. Surprisingly, Henry seemed to feel a lot better and we still made it through the safari. He clearly was not feeling 100%, but still had a great time seeing all the animals. I remember going to the Wildlife Safari when I was a kid myself, but it was really cool to see again - I definitely recommend it as an easy trip from Portland. We saw way too many animals to list here, so I'll just share a bunch of the pictures instead! Henry made it home without incident (slept most of the way, thank goodness!), but then got sick again the next morning. I got sick a few days later with what I presume to be the same thing he had, and boy oh boy, I don't know how he managed to enjoy himself to the extent he did, because I felt absolutely terrible. He's one tough kiddo!
