We decided to try and have a break from the decorating today, (although we do need to get it finished as 'what will be the homeschool room' is a pickle and we can't get to any of our projects). We took a trip to the Cotswold Wildlife Park. Ralph had a lovely moment with the tamarins. They were intrigued by him and he was very interested in them. Usually having two dogs along with you can mean that you cannot see as much as you would like i.e restrictions on the parts of the park you can enter, and those you can - the animals shy away when they see the dogs. However the tamarins were something different they were coming up extremely close and calling out their little noises. Ralph was calling out to them with a little whine, LOVELY. Here is a photo N took of a tamarin. Excuse the reflective glare :)
As usual Pepper was loving the penguins. Ralph gets annoyed he can't see :)
N decided today she would walk through the 'Madagascar' enclosure, with the lemurs. I can't go inside as I have the two dogs so she has to enter alone. She is very wary of the fact that the lemurs are roaming free and she is on her own. I had a very proud moment when she wanted to go inside. They were just being fed and the park keeper gave her a little 'talk' about lemurs. She really enjoyed it and came apologising she had been in there so long (no need to) and telling me all the information about the lemurs. She said she will be going in again next time we visit.
This afternoon she attempted a scraperfoil. I want to know who can actually do these. They are so difficult. She has a few and she has tried them all and ends up frustrated that she cannot make it look as good as the packet shows it. I assure her even adults will struggle to make it look that good. Please leave a comment and let us know if you can do scraperfoil and what the trick is :)
Here she is typing a review of the Nintendo game Style Boutique. The dogs always like to get involved.
