Sliding into the Yorkshire Wildlife Park

Following our disappointment at the lack of living things encountered in Rodley Nature Reserve a couple of weeks ago, today we decided to have a go at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park which, by its very name, seemed to have more promise. And it delivered.

Accompanied by Jamie's Granny White and Auntie Sarah, who both seem to have settled in well, we headed to the site near Doncaster which only opened in April. Jamie met lots of new and exciting mates.

The meercats were first...

...then a goat (which seemed more interested in him than he in it)...

...a swan (or duck? or goose?)...some bird thing anyway (it had wings and a beak and everything)...

...a mummy llama and a baby llama...

...a Bambi (or a "baby deer," be posh if you want)...
...some lemurs (so I'm told)...

...and then (as you can see above), Mummy treated him to a go on the big slide.

A good day was hopefully had by all, including Jamie's new furry friends.

If you're from Yorkshire and thinking of making the trip, I would fully recommend it.

Especially if you're a daddy.

Don't tell me you didn't think I had a go, did you?!

Followed by another (only a touch faster).
