Fun day at South Lakes Wild Animal Park, Cumbria, England

27th July 2008

We spent a day at a wonderful wild animal park in the county of Cumbria in NW England, and we both were well pleased! It was the best zoo type park we've ever seen! We were always so much closer to the animals and many harmless ones were able to roam free and it was so much fun seeing them and getting so close! They had so much room to roam around in (even the ones behind fences) and a natural habitat for them; it was GREAT!!!

Here are some photos I've chosen, of the many we took, to share with you. I wish I could share them all but there were hundreds! Ken and I both went snap happy!

Just click on first photo in album and then choose to either click NEXT to take your time and look at your leisure or choose SLIDESHOW at the bottom, if you prefer. Hope you enjoy a bit of what we experienced.
