I got up this morning cleaned all the windows, did a bit of gardening, looked at the clock and it was only ten thirty! So Donna and I decided to head out to Willobank Wildlife Park. I loved it there, because I got to pat the eels. I love eels. One of the eels scooted as far up on the rock as it could so I could pat it - it didn't want food, just a rub. Yep, it did freak other people out. If I could see through your computer screen I'm betting you're probably thinking the same thing lol. I also loved the kunekune pigs and they gross people out to. You can scare little kids with them ROFL. You can also get really close to the kiwis which is very cool.
We spent a couple of leisurely hours wandering around there (and now I feel like I'm on holiday lol), then headed off to pick up photos for me to scrap from Harvey Norman and to grab some groceries before heading back home. Got home to find that they've been and turned all our hay, so keep your fingers crossed for good weather for the next day or two and they might have it all baled and out of here. Dan gets in the paddock and he's in doggie heaven - he burrows into the hay, rolling around and covered in it - very cute to watch. Thought I'd just update my blog and then I'm actually going to scrap - I have three layouts on the go, but for the last couple of days I just keep looking at them, nothing seemed to go right, but today it all seems to be coming together, at least on one of them anyway lol.
Hmm had some very cute photos but the computer isn't playing nicely and for once it's not bloggers fault but my computer...will have to get back to this once I've had a play (or kicked it, one or the other lol)

Hmm, I cannot say that patting/rubbing eels is something I would ever really like to do!!! So yeah, I would be one of "those" people you would see if you could see through your computer screen! Hehe :-)
Seriously though, I'm glad you enjoyed your day. It does sound pretty relaxing (aside from the eel patting, of course).
xx
I love Willowbank too - you can get so up close and personal with the animals. I find it amazing how soft and silky the eels feel, and the kiwi experience is fantastic!
I've heard it all ... eel patting ... eeewwwwwwhhhhhh!!!! GROSS!!!!!
Now I hope that you didn't decide to go and play in the hay, cos you will be sneezing for days on end buddy!
So...you getting a pet eel too?!!!!
