London Zoo and Regents Park

Today we caught the tube to Camden and then walked to the London Zoo. We were lucky, having the London Pass cards got us express entry and we seemed to have half an hour in the zoo without too many other people.

The zoo was impressive and had a lot of reptiles and a large aquarium exhibit, but on the whole it was similar to Perth Zoo. A great experience and another lesson on how well we have things at home. One of the cool things about the zoo is the girls (unknowingly) visited another location where they filmed a Harry Porter movie. In the photo below the girls are standing right on the spot Harry Potter was sitting when he spoke to the snake for the first time.


After the zoo, we walked through Regents Park on our way to catch up with Dad's cousin Bryan who lives in London. The gardens were absolutely beautiful! Pa would spend hours wandering around theses gardens.

Yes! Although, we all simply walked past the kangaroo, emu, wallaby enclosure.
