Visit to the Lion Park
A bit outside of East London there is a lion park where you can actually pet lioncubs (if they have any, of course!). When we were there, there were some very cute little 3-week old lions that acted just like cats. There were also some 3-month old lions that were very fond of each other. However, the greatest moment of all was when we visited an area with 7 and 8 month old lions and tigers. The tigers were very impressive and large, but we were allowed to touch them. This album contains the pictures!

Streets of Philadelphia
The closest city to where we live is Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is an important city in the context of American history as it is where the United States was founded. The city also served as capital before it was moved to Washington, DC. Recently, we had the opportunity to visit the historic district, society hill and Penn’s landing during the fall which provided the opportunity to take some beautiful photographs.
The historic district is where the deceleration of independence, constitution and bill of rights were negotiated and drafted between the founding states. It is also where the first US parliament met for a few years. Society Hill is next to these historic buildings and is a beautiful area with old historic streets and buildings. Penn’s landing is a harbor area along the Delaware river with some great walking opportunities, some historic ships, museums and just a pleasant place to hang out along the water.
