I was kind of excited about seeing a zoo.  Especially when I heard that it was a safari type where you can drive your car through the park.  And Jacob and Heidi's son was real excited.  However, it was a very hot day.

We pulled up to the entrance, and all I could see was a huge line of cars.  Now I had in my mind what kind of day this would be.  Hot, and a lot of people in their cars taking their sweet time riding through the park.

all the animals get sedated then hide in the shade behind the bushes and trees.

Once into the park, we found a place to park the car.  Got out and walked around to see some elephants and flamingos.  We found the place to get on the bus so we could get a guided tour.  Once again...learn as much Danish as possible because not all Danes speak english.  And thank god for Jacob (my personal translator)

This is where the non-excitment begins.  The bus tour began.  I had no idea what was being said.  I just watched a bunch of people look to the left, then to the right.  I was wondering what they were looking at because I didn't see a thing.  I kept thinking to myself...wow, all the animals must be on a lunch break.  Come to find out, thanks to Jacob, all the animals get sedated then hide in the shade behind the bushes and trees.  So, now I am thinking to myself...how long is this tour going to take?  I was ready for it to end so we could get back on the road because I was craving another fransk hot dog and a waffle is.

We got back into the car.  I deleted all my pictures, because all I got was empty scenery.  Then found the nearest hot dog stand, and is hus.
