Day 144 - Wildlife Park

 Tuesday, and we went to Axe Wildlife Park in Axminster today!


A Goose! 


Flamingos!


A more picturesque shot.


I forget what this is! But I  like it.


More flamingos.


Photobomb from a flamingo while taking a shot of flamingos.


These little guys were having a shout.


While this one was having a nap.


Lovely porcupine, we started having a conversation with each other using honks.


The meerkats were loving the hot weather.


Close up.


This one was inside by some glass eating all the trapped flies. Yum... I guess.


Some kind of wolf dog friend!


Another meerkat who looked adorable. 


A nice dozing cat.


Wallaby!


I forget what this is, kind of a guinea pig bunny crossover. 


Petting goats.


Zebras, who immediately after this photo did a huge wee!


Lovely little guy.


I love tortoises, this was a big one! I stroked his head.


A Lynx! We never see lynx's and this one was having a lovely sunbathe. 


These emus got really close for photos. 


A fishing cat! Lovely boy!


This little one was waiting to be fed. 


There we go!


We had no idea who this was, but so lovely!


This Lemur was fast asleep until!


This one woke him up. Love his dopey tongue. I guess because he saw the camera because...


They quickly posed for a shot.


Or two.


Lizard!

And finally one last lizard friend. 

Day 143 - Fossils and Dinner for the Kids

 Here's my little collection of fossils I've found so far! Love Charmouth.


And here's me preparing an age appropriate dinner for the kids!


Day 142 - Lovely Views

 We went for a walk up Golden Cap and took in the scenery after a lovely long hot day on the beach.


A shot of the beach on the first part of the walk.


Charmouth, and Lyme Regis in the distance.


Slightly different shot.


And another shot that has a good view of the sky and cloud patterns.


Shot over the cliffs towards Waymouth.


More Charmouth from above.


Crows on fence posts.


Another Charmouth shot with some nice reflections on the river.

And a close up of those reflections.

Day 141 - Holiday!

It's the first day of holiday! We're in Charmouth, in Devon, and the weather is glorious! I love holidays, a chance to just chill out and leave your worries behind.

We even went straight to the beach because we cant get into the holiday house until 4pm.


We saw this caterpillar and egg sac on a wall.


Saw swans and ducks by the beach. There's a river that runs into the sea.


Another shot by the beach.


Sunset taken in Charmouth looking over Lyme Regis


Another view with paddle boarders.


We had some sparklers on the first night and the kids loved it.


Swirly!


Zaggy!


The moon behind a tree on the hill.


Not sure if this comes out, but if you zoom right in you can see a ton of stars!


Day 140 - One more day to our holiday!

 Ooooh our holiday is so close, we have been looking forward to this for ages!


In the mean time, in between being excited and packing, we had a visitor to our garden, I don't recognise this type of bird!
