A Trip to the Zoo


Yesterday my family and I 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 having lunch, we went for a ride on the elephant. It was a thrill to ride it. Dad fell off when he let go off the rope, but he was ok.


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