Just spotted [this article](http://www.grindtv.com/outdoor/blog/51258/giraffes+join+guests+for+breakfast+and+dinner+at+iconic+giraffe+manor/) about the giraffes at Giraffe Manor, a hotel and giraffe sanctuary near Nairobi, Kenya, where the giraffes join the guests for breakfast.

Lots of photos included.

I’ve seen articles and TV segments on this before. Would love to go … how cool is that??

That’s really cool but I wouldn’t let one lick my face like that last picture. I don’t know where that giant black tongue has been.

Personally, I’d be a little uncomfortable with a giraffe ogling me in my bedroom. I bet they give great head though.

I have found that giraffes are obnoxious and hypocritical, especially on message boards.

No, no, no… it’s deep throat to the max.

See? Exactly why I’m not letting that guy lick me on the mouth.

What’s that other little critter that appears in some of the pictures? (In particular, the third picture and the night-time picture.) Also the second picture show a picture hanging on the wall with some critter in it. Is that the same critter? Is it a little boar or wart-hog?

Those are warthogs with the giraffes, and it looks like a baby rhino in the photo but I’m not sure.
