Forget Madam Tussauds, Buckingham Palace and Big Ben, if you asked me what my favourite pastime in London is, my answer would be the London zoo. It is the one attraction that I will happily brave the queues of crying tired children just to spend a few hours wondering around in the peaceful surroundings! I grew up being surrounded by nature and wildlife and I never really knew how much I took that for granted until I moved to the oppressive noisy city – now I get excited when I see an urban fox or squirrel! The zoo is massive and I never manage to see everything at once but if you decide to make the trip, don’t miss the butterfly tent, the meerkats, the gorillas or the llamas! Have a good weekend everyone!
London Zoo is wonderful although I havnt been since my son was really small, my favourite Zoo is Paradise willife Park in Broxbourne Hertfordshire you must check it out. Nowhere near as big as London zoo mind but so much going on there besides just the animals
ReplyDeleteYou can take the girl out of Africa, but you can never take Africa out of the girl!
ReplyDeleteEdinburgh zoo is also beautiful if you ever go that far north.
Have a great weekend xx
I think that I've commented this before, but you make London seem so vibrant-- blue skies and lots of green! Not at all the dreary grayness of the City's reputation. And I'm amazed how much your zoo reminds me of the Atlanta Zoo!
ReplyDeleteLondon zoo looks amazing! I would love to visit, if I ever get back to London, thanks for sharing. Happy weekend.
