   When we got there，we bought our tickets and drove into the park.We were very excited at the thought of going to see the lions.But to get to the lions' place we had to go through the monkeys' land first.And that was an unforgettable experience because they climbed all over the car，ate apples and bananas，and threw all kinds of things at us.They seemed very unfriendly.
   Anyway，we went on our way to the lions' place where we had to lock ourselves in the car as we knew lions could be dangerous.A lion came up very close to us.Then it was on the bonnet（車蓋）.It looked calm but we felt terrified.Aunt Emily，who isn't very brave，started to call for help.The kids started crying.Only my brother，George，stayed cool.I sounded the horn （喇叭） but nobody heard us.
