Checking out the tigers |
Considering how small a country England is, this place was huge. We walked miles to see various animals, and in many cases, no animals as it was pretty cold and many of them were hiding in their shelters (we assume.)
Checking out these cute monkeys (I forget their official name), especially this Mama and her baby.
What a good uncle - little legs were getting tired. Mind you, so were mine and he did not offer me any help!
Amanda turned out to be the hero of the day, with her trusty Mary Poppins bag. At one point Bryttain fell and skinned her knee and it was Amanda who had plasters (Bandaids), moments later she produced giant cookies. Needless to say, we were impressed and grateful.
An extra option you can choose is the African Safari Experience, which takes you through another part of the park to see more animals. Part of their program is breeding animals and then returning them to their natural habitat, in the wild. They are pretty successful.
Our ride. |
Arran sat next to Uncle Wesley, who insisted on sitting next to the window so that he could get the best view, never mind that there was a little boy next to him who would have like to see. Asia excitedly waiting for us to set off.
Uncle Ian, with his girlfriend Amanda, and Bryttain and I, all ready and waiting for our safari experience.
There was a stopping point on the 'safari' where the children could play, snacks could be bought and reptiles visited. We did all three.
We left thoroughly exhausted, but it had been a good day.
