Amazing giraffe encounter at Safaari West

I was at Safari West on Sunday and it was cold and drizzling..fortunately for my wife and I, SW offers blankets for their open air jeep tour.  Anyhow, because of the weather, some of the giraffes were in a barn like structure that we were allowed to enter on the walking section of the tour.  This brought us closer to the giraffe than I have ever been before.  I was told to take my baseball cap off because the giraffe may grab it off the top of my head.

The price of admission was more than compensated for with this intimate encounter.  I will post more photos and some video throughout the week.
