Cornville, AZ Oct. Break 2012
Dan and I decided to take a break from life and head on up to Cornville, AZ. Until a few years ago, I had never even heard of Cornville. Now I know that it is close to Cottonwood, (that I have heard of). We persuaded my sister, Charisse and her her husband Will to come with us. The weather was beautiful. A storm had just left that area fresh and crisp.

| Sisters! |
When Dan finally arrived the next morning, we decided to explore the unknown and historic parts of the state that Charisse and I were not familiar with. We headed up to Jerome, AZ (which used to be a mining town) that it nestled high up on the edge of the mountain. We some some very old stuff. Walked the streets and enjoyed the company.

After Jerome, we heading the back way into Prescott and saw some beautiful country, curvy roads and lots of trees. Of course we had to go to the gun store in Prescott. Then we headed back to the timeshare.

The next day, on our way back into town, we headed to visit OUT OF AFRICA wildlife park. THE BEST ZOO EVER. Look what we got to do?
First, we rode on this cool safari ride that took us into an area where all the animals roomed free. They came up to the bus and we even could pet them. I feed the giraffe a carrot, but the driver gave it a kiss. EWWWW!
 |
| Yep, that's my hand! |
 |
| EWWW! A kiss! |
 |
| never been this close... |
 |
Yep, IN the bus!
|
 |
reminds me of a dog.
|
Next, we wandered around the zoo, in the middle of the desert and saw some very African animals. I have never been to close to a lion before. I might have been a little nervous. After a long hot day or seeing amazing animals, we headed home :)
 |
| So close! |
