Last week I posted on my other blog ,about a walk on the wild side in my grounds, watching the demise of my trees. Today I took another walk with Chris on the real wild side at a nearby superb animal park....
.......it is called Parc le Pal and is nestled in 100's of acres of grounds, with over 500 animals, rides, roller coasters, restaurants, cinema, and spectacles with eagles, seals and parrots etc. Truly a fantastic day out for all the family! This is where Chris and I went today and I thought you might like to join us for a while.....
Hello! do come in to my enclosure and meet my friends...
This is Joeph, my best friend, he is quite old and he has a wonky horn!!
OOOOH! But my other one is O.K. !!
" Now listen here, guys & gals, if we huddle together against these rocks they won't spot us!
"Tut! Florrie and Amy are always titivating! They think they are better than us!!
" Now where did Petula go? can't see her anywhere!"
" Coooeee sh's behind you!!" 
" Come on Pet, up this hill, show them what you can do!"
" What a fuss! We don't have to do anything to show off, just display our great headgear!!"
" What is wrong with everybody today! They are all complaining! Keep quiet, I am trying to do a job here!"
" They advertised them as 'des. res.' ! Which one is yours? Mine has 2 bedrooms!"
And so the chatter went on...
Chris and I just smiled and strolled hand in hand...what a perfect day
Animals are so funny looking sometimes. My husband just spent all day every day this week at the zoo with his 3rd graders for the Big Zoo Lesson. They always have a grand time.
