London Zoo

Sam, Pip, Liam and I went to London Zoo today - for Pip's Birthday, which was on Friday. We all had rail tickets so were able to take advantage of the two for one deal running at the moment.
We met Pip  and Liam outside The Honest Sausage - Sam and I had breakfast there before they arrived - delicious!

The zoo was great fun with some great animals to see - I liked the giraffes, giant tortoises and otters best. Sam liked the meerkats - especially when they stood up on their hind legs! We listened to some talks about the tigers, otters and seahorses - Liam had a starring role in the seahorse talk!
Amazing black tongue

We had lunch in the restaurant tent then Pip had her face painted. The weather deteriorated so we did some of the indoor exhibits before catching the train home - all in all a very nice day out.

This fella had a starring role in the latest James Bond film!
