Niger Creatures

We wanted to take Leila to see some of Niger that she's never experienced. So, Saturday morning we took a trip to the sand dunes where we rode camels, and on Monday morning we drove out to see giraffes. Both very fun, Niger things that we enjoyed with the Rivas' family.

Rockin' our shades.

These were our camels for a trip around the sand dunes. It was so windy we had sand in our hair, our ears, everywhere! 

Now we just need Frazier and Mary-Michael. I'm missing those babes.

Camel ride with Daddy.

Me riding solo. This us not as easy as it may look.

That is a big creature we are leaning on and not the prettiest of God's creation!

Now these are magnificent creatures. I just love giraffes!

We enjoyed seeing 2 Mommas and 2 babies.

See the giraffe way in the back?!

This is one ticklish girl and a girl who also was a bit intimidated by these creatures, so she stayed really close to us.
