Haven't been to Bristol Zoo since I was a kid - is it worth going Dawn? What did you think of it?

Thanks both.
Yes Azz, its a very decent place. No big carnivores, except 2 lions that were busy bonking! Lots of stuff I hadnt seen before, like Aye-Aye's, Sloths etc.. Some HUGE flipping fruit bats that I walked by!!! I thought they were behind glass!!! The most amazing Sand cats, wouldnt mind a couple of those, but our damp air gives them respiratory problems. lots of walk through bits, underwater viewing for the Seal lions and an underwater aquarium. Well worth the visit.

Great picture Dawn - very sharp.
I think number 1 is great - you can really see his? wee hands working.
