Shoreditch amble

We went to Shorditch, East London. There was a lot to see. I really enjoyed ambling about. The children were being babysat and we had a very rare evening out. It was such a treat to walk,look and take it all in in such a relaxed manner. We finished it off with a curry in Brick Lane.. it is famous for it,s curry houses. We  had such a good time. It felt like we were from another country visiting this city and taking it all in and savouring it.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Zoo Time

We went to our favourite zoo. Whipsnade.We always have a great day here.

 

Peacocks are so splendid and majestic. What amazing colours.

 

 

I love the elephants. We were fortunate to come across them being taken for a walk around the zoo. It was so sweet. They were all holding each others tails , just like in the Jungle book ! I wasn,t quick enough with my camera though.
