Yay! We've got a camera!!!!

Okay. I haven't been posting as often and this is due to the fact Ethan lost our camera in Manchester but we now have a new one from ebay- the same kind- Samsung NV10 so we put it into action this past Thurs. We actually have 2 of the same camera since the first one we got off ebay, didnt work. GRRRR. That's okay since the 2nd one we got came with a memory card, all the cords and plug in and battery charger so it was much better.
The weather lately has been horrible and has dipped down to 15 degrees with rainy grey skies but this Thurs. the sun came out and we took advantage by going back to the Dalton Southlakes Animal Park to see what we missed out on the first time. Here are the pics and videos.
This time we got to feed the lemurs grapes, feed and pet a giraffe, watch the rhinos- there was a new baby rhino just born two days earlier, hang out with the penguins, watch the ducks and see the lions and tigers work to get their food. Ethan really enjoyed his time there. He wasn't scared to feed the giraffes and before we went to watch the lions, we went to see them in their cages. As soon as he walked into the area, he started saying "Woarrr" which is his lion noise.
Those lemurs are so funny. One even wanted to go into Ethan's stroller!! But we like the pic with the baby lemur on his mummy's back.

Tiger eating his chicken.
This was the the rhino baby we saw last time at the zoo. The 2nd pic is a rhino pushing a branch and below is the newly born rhino and his mum.
That is one very muddy rhino!!! This lion was HUGE!!
These were the last pics we took as the Park was getting ready to close. This pygmy hippo was hilarious. Totally passed out and the park people kept calling it to wake up but it kept ignoring them. Then we saw the otters and the bears.
It was a fantastic day!!!
