January 3 2011- treetops and hospital

today we got back in a car a drove to a hospital for my moms meeting. it was more derelict than western hospitals and most of the hallways where outside, after about 45 minutes of the same presentation i've seen my mom give about a million times we got dropped of at the shuttle to treetops. treetops is a very famous and old hotel in the middle of the Aberdare wildlife park. It's famous for two reasons, firstly because it looms over a watering hole that they've surrounded by a fence allowing you to get close to the animals on the ground and in the hotel. and secondly because its where queen Elizabeth the second was staying when she found out her father died meaning that she would be queen. treetops has a very British vibe including tea at 4:30, and on the first night we saw 13 elephants in a group. 4 babies and 9 adults. the other cool thing was that i went down to the bottom of the hotel and got like 5 feet from an elephant through a single pane of glass before it noticed me.
