Safari

I have wanted to go to Africa and go on a safari. Well, my birthday was last weekend, and my girlfriend took me on one.
アフリカへサファリ旅行したかった。先週末は私の誕生日だったから、彼女は連れていってくれた。

Well, we can't leave home for long. And air fares are frightfully expensive. So instead of going to Africa, we went to a place called Safari West in Sonoma, which tries to recreate the experience on their 400 acre preserve. We were driven around on vehicle that are just like the type used on Safaris in Africa and saw a variety of animals, some from very close up. It was a lot of fun.
でも暇がないし、航空料金は高いし、アフリカへ行かないでソノマ・ヴァレーのSafari Westと言うサファリパークへ行った。サファリの車で色々なアフリカの動物を見た。楽しかった。
