Girly Day Out at Colchester Zoo

Over half term me and Tina were commenting that Holly hasn't really been to many zoo's and she is at an age where she is really taking an interest in animals and learning a lot about them at school. Anyway last Monday Holly had an inset day, the two boys were at school and I was at work so Tina decided to have a girly day out at Colchester Zoo. 

I had sold a couple of life jackets that were too small for H and the money was hers to then spend in the shop. No surprises that Holly bought yet another cuddly toy and also a flamingo bamboo coffee cup. She absolutely loved the coffee cup and couldn't wait to come home and zoom call Auntie Nicky to show her. Then the very next night she took it to football and kicked a ball at it shattering it in to pieces!!!! She was gutted and in tears. Needless to say we had to order a new one off of Amazon and this time she is not taking it to football.

Girly day out for Tina and Holly at Colchester Zoo.

Quality girly time in the glorious sunshine.

Lovely to see pictures of Holly learning more about animals.

And being sassy.

A Slushie and a giant meercat.

My little Princess.

A big tiger came out to see Holly.

More of the tiger.

Holly being an elephant.

Spotting rhinos in the Africa enclosure.

Not sure why Holly is holding her leg!

Watching the giraffes.

Holly was obviously impressed with the giraffes as she bought a giraffe teddy in the shop.

A lovely day to go out elephant spotting.

Cheeky girl seeming to have a great day out without her brothers winding her up.

On the train to get some shade, rest the legs and go and see some more animals.

The penguins.

Happy Feet time.

My cheeky monkey watching some cheeky monkeys.

Another picture of H getting close to a giraffe.

And at last Holly found her two brothers at the zoo!!!

Good job she likes having her picture taken.

It's not every day you get to ride a sealion.

Or sit on a giant turtle.

But she is having bags of fun on her girly day out at the zoo.
