Just me and the kids! Due to the high temperatures, we decided that Chris would stay home with the dogs to keep them cool. This meant that me and the kids could pick somewhere that didn’t welcome dogs and the kids wanted the zoo.
We had booked tickets in advance so entry was quick and easy. Despite the heat, we saw all animals except the wolves and penguins. Most of the enclosures are outside but there is also a tropical house and farm barn (got my guinea pig fix, like being at home!)
Our highlight were the tigers who played in the pool. Just like kittens but a LOT bigger! The other big cats were also stunning.
After lunch in the main restaurant, the kids has more energy and enjoyed playing on the playground equipment.
We finished off our visit with one last trip round the zoo on the land train and an ice lolly.
