giraffe centre

yesterday i went to the giraffe centre with a few other volunteers. it was so fun! what is the giraffe centre? its a centre in one of nairobi's suburbs created by the kenyan conservation organization. the purpose is to educate kenyan school children about their country's wildlife and environment, and give visitors an opportunity to come into close contact with the world's tallest species. and did we ever come in contact with them. up close and personal. they are incredibly beautiful animals. we got to feed them. their tongues are sooo long! we took pics with them, but watch out for headbutting. haha. giraffe kisses were great. except their tongues are a little rough - kind of like a gigantic cat's tongue. good times!
