A Trip to the Zoo

Yesterday my family went to the zoo to see the elephant.


When we got to the zoo, we went to the shop to buy some food to give to the animals.


After getting the food we went to the nocturnal house where we saw birds and reptiles which only come out at night.


Before lunch we went for a ride on the elephant. It was a thrill to ride it. Dad nearly fell off when he let go of the rope.


During lunch we fed some birds in the park. In the afternoon we saw the animals being fed.


When we returned home we were tired but happy because we had so much fun.
