We're off to the Zoo next week! In London!

Above.

Regent's Park in the "Posh" part of London next Tuesday, the 21st, need to leave here at 8 AM to get there by 12 PM.

I'll be taking a ton of photos, some of which I may upload when we get back.

Has anyone on here been?

Ooooo that sounds exciting! I haven't been to that one, but love a zoo. Have you had a look on their website or anything, see what's there?

SheffieldMan1976 · July 17

@Holly_Scope I've just had a look, I think we'll be staying away from the Reptile Enclosure seeing as I'm terrified of Snakes!

Holly_Alumni · July 17

Ahh yes, definitely avoid that area then! Is there anything you're especially excited to see?

It sounds like a brilliant day out - please post lots of photos!

If they have elephants, you have to say hello to the elephants from me.

Sounds like a really enjoyable day out ahead, hope you enjoy :)

That's so exciting @SheffieldMan1976! I used to live not too far away from London Zoo at one point (North London but not the posh part!)

There was a path around the park where you could just about see the giraffes and zebras without paying to go in. I used to love going down there and peeking through the fence at them. Giraffes were always one of my faves anyway ☺️

How many of you are going along?

SheffieldMan1976 · July 19

4 of us, 2 staff, me and another resident.

I'll be sure to upload a ton of photos when we get back, or the next day as it'll be quite late when we get back on the day.

Sounds great @SheffieldMan1976! Looking forward to seeing the pictures ☺️

Speaking of photos, I'm about to upload several shots from today's comic con in Barnsley, I'm just waiting for my staff member to email me the rest of the photos because my camera died (I wouldn't mind but I specifically charged it up last week)
