Hey guys! A couple of weeks ago I went to Bristol Zoo with my family, and decided that I would do a little post about it. To say the least, this post has ended up being extremely long with all the photos, please be aware that this is VERY picture heavy! I had taken over 200 photos originally, so to get down to this many I think I've done pretty well. Some of the photos may be a little blurry because of the glass/cage in front of the animals. Anyway on with the post!
We arrived at about half 10 in the morning, spent a little while looking round the flamingoes, Twilight World, red pandas and a few other animals around the entrance. We then went and had lunch at the Coral Cafe, where the food is always really nice! I had a pork baguette with salad, and a bottle of Juicy Water in, I think, the flavour raspberries & apple. After a few more hours of looking around the animals we went home after a very long day! These are some of the photos I took, I did my best to remember what animals they are!
A quick note. For some reason the captions on the photos won't show up when I publish the post, so please excuse that! I will try and get it fixed soon.

DeleteThe photos you took are so pretty, especially the ones of the butterflies! The ones of the tarantula and bees did make me squirm though, haha x
ReplyDeleteThanks! The butterflies are definitely the easiest to photograph as you can get close up, and there's no cage. Haha yeah the tarantula isn't my favourite to say the least, bit double-sided about bees though x
