The Zoo, yesterday.

[Altrezia]

My Wife and I bought a 'Shadow a Keeper for a Day' thing for my little sister's 18th birthday, as she's the loopy sort who really love animals. Don't understand it myself as I can take or leave animals. Anyways, we went with her yesterday to watch and take pics and what-not, and I'm not totally disapointed with the results.

Oh, and the day was excellent. I thought she'd just follow some grumpy underpaid zoo keeper round whilst they fed the animals, but she got to actually go into the cages and stroke the animals, get really up close to everything, and see all aspects of the zoo. Top stuff. It was at Paradise Wildlife Park, above the M25.
