Here's looking at you, Babe

So, where were we? Oh yes, at Longleat. After the train ride and the boat ride (I have never been on a holiday with my parents that didn't involve water travel) we decided to go around the safari park and see the big animals. My mum was lovely enough to allow me to sit in the front passenger seat so that I could take lots of photos and my dad was a patient driver (stop now dad, NOW!). We saw the tigers who kept their distance so my pics are a little fuzzy, and the lions whose need to sleep means they look like rolled up carpets in the photos, and the wolves - again with the sleeping! But I was finally rewarded. While casually meandering through the large animal enclosure (obviously in the car with the windows down - all allowed) we pulled up next to this lovely beastie.



I only got the one shot before it turned towards us and my dad took off like a formula one driver but, you have to admit, it is a good shot.
