Going To The Zoo, Zoo, Zoo

 

A few weeks ago I went to Edinburgh Zoo for the first time. I'm not usually a huge fan of zoos, but this one really is lovely. The newly redone penguin area is brilliant, and we were lucky enough to see some of the brand new tiny baby penguins too. We were also very excited to see the pandas. As you can see from my photos, the male, Yang Guang, was asleep (typical!) but the female, Tian Tian, was roaming about the enclosure, kindly entertaining us by taking a dip in the pool right next to the viewing area. Of course there are lots of other animals at the zoo too: I was just most enchanted by the penguins and the pandas!

 

Edinburgh Zoo is definitely worth a visit, and hopefully pretty soon there will be a baby panda to visit too: what could be more adorable?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Playing Dress Up Part 2

The photos in the last post and this post were taken in my (shared with another couple: that's why it's not decorated!) sitting room when Rebecca was over for an interview last week. She bought her penguin family with her to leave at my house because she is moving over to Edinburgh this week (yay!), and I decided to pose with them... while she posed with a random drum. As you do. I love the velvety dress that I am wearing, but it is rather tricky to walk in: I had to take teeny tiny footsteps!

Dress from Naf Naf, shoes from Schuh, penguin from Central Park Zoo!

 

 

And then there were four...
