Elk in the Park

We adventured out of the city today. We drove to Elk Island National Park. It is about 35km from the city. We really didn't see any elk on this trip however as the pictures show we ran into, literally ran into a million buffalo. They were in a trapped area that you were allowed to drive through and let them come close the vehicle as well as roam FREE in the park. It was just as scary as running into a bear!! We have found a new place to take family and friends when they come to visit! Benson's favorite part was when he got to stand at the window and talk to the buffalo. It was too cute. Here are few pictures of the trip.

p.s. The white house you see in the background was made by Ukrainian Pioneer's. It was under construction for renovations but from what we could see was that they were talented people. The roof was made of wheat and the outside was trees and mud.

  1. We went there...but wasn't nearly as exciting in wildlife watching as your trip!
