Halloween Night

Halloween night we decided we wanted to be tourists. So, we set out to explore tiger country (google said this was a tiger habitat--but we didn't see any there). So, we headed to Presque Isle, where there had been reports of tiger sightings earlier that week (see previous post). We were sure to bring our camera, binoculars, and a map of the area. We even put on bug repellant (okay, not really--but we did wear socks with our flip flops to keep a little warmer in our shorts--luckily it wasn't a cold night). It wasn't too long after dusk when we spotted them! Wild tigers in there natural habitat--and we were especially lucky to find a hunting party!!!
Here we find the oldest tiger pausing to enjoy some of the night's spoils. As we followed these wild tigers, we discovered one of them couldn't walk on her own--so I got to carry her throughout the whole evening. It was really special. I don't know why we didn't take a picture.
