"God am I sick of these monkeys staring and pointing at me..." |
Gareth and I had a fantastic day out with the godchildren on Thursday. The sun was beating down so we headed for the
Welsh Mountain Zoo in Colwyn Bay, which is worth the price of admission alone for its stunning views.
The kids - aged three and seven - had a whale of a time, as did their mum and dad and baby brother, catching up with the birds of prey, the sea lions, tiger, lemurs, red panda, penguins, wild horses, deer, reptiles, farm animals, gibbons, chimps, camels and macaws (to name a few!).
It's well worth a trip up there for anybody living in or visiting North Wales. They even have a stone circle to eat your picnic on!

This chimp looked like he was cold, but it was actually a very warm day |
|
These lemurs hopped out of their huddle to catch some rays every time the sun came from behind the clouds |
|
A very friendly wild horse. I christened him Peter. No reason. |
|
Deer. Or "Bambis", as the children insisted! |
|
Gareth's god-daughter, looking like butter wouldn't melt. But, I can tell you, it DOES! |
|
And here's my god-daughter, photographing the birds of prey. Like father, like daughter, obviously |

Some scruffy touristy looking guy. He photo-bombed my picture of a landscape... |
