This trip is my honeymoon trip, which is also my first travel notes! ___________ Looking at the photos I took, I think I should write a travel note. The reason why I chose Yala National Park is because of tenderness , so I have a deep memory! __________ Let's start with the car we're riding in. It's the jeep or pickup truck in the picture that has been refitted with seats on it, but it's not totally closed. It's different from the one in China. Be sure to bring sunglasses and face towels when you come. Just look at the sand in the picture. What's more, the car will be very bumpy! ___________ Before she came, she joined a strategy group. Everyone said that it was too lucky to see the leopard. Even a local teacher said that she had been to Dumu several times and that the ticket money for one trip was very expensive. She said that seeing it once was also worth the ticket money! So we didn't report too much hope to see, and then unexpectedly, we saw the leopard four times that day! Four times, four times!!! When I think about it, I feel very excited and lucky, and then I am very happy and sad - quot; pain - quot; now, I fell my husband's camera, then that heart!!! Also remind you not to be too excited, because the car was very bumpy, so I slipped my husband's camera lens from my hand, parabola flew out! So the cost-effective day I gave four stars, after all, paid a lens, the average cost-effective is not so high, but this place is really worth playing! Remember to bring your good camera! Maybe you can also meet a leopard four times!
On the fifth day of the honeymoon, in order to take part in Yala Safari's journey, we had to go out at five o'clock in the morning. As soon as we arrived at the entrance of Yala National Park, there were a lot of jeeps waiting for us to enter. It seems that wildlife is really attractive. Today's driver is a friend of the tour guide, driving a Toyota pickup converted off-road vehicle, three rows of six seats let us sit as we like. Fortunately, it rained, so there wasn't too much dust after entering the park, otherwise it would end up with sand in your mouth. Every Jeep along the way is looking for animal traces, as long as a special animal is found, instantly all the vehicles will focus on the location found, as if playing a game to find something strange. When we were looking for animals, the driver stepped on the accelerator and began to run when he received a call. It was discovered that the cheetah had disappeared after we arrived at the scene. There are also many animals in the park, such as buffalo, swarms of Sika deer, wild boar, crocodile, peacock, elephant, fox, monkey, eagle and various birds. Fortunately, we have our own glasses with our guide. Sometimes because we can't see anything far away, we are lucky to see several crocodiles eating a deer in the distance, and an eagle dismantling the lizard under its feet. It took more than four hours to finish all the journeys.
