LIFESTYLE | Chessington

I don't know if anyone is interested in posts like these but I feel like chatting about it because it features animals. Yesterday I went to Chessington, which is a theme park if you didn't know, with my family for my cousin's birthdays (it was kind of like a joint thing.) We split into two groups and I went with the little three year olds so I didn't go on anything. At the end I attempted to go on the Vampire ride but I sat on and got off and ran away. It was better than last time though, last time I sat on, pulled the thing halfway down and panicked so got off, whacking my head. And I ran back into the queue instead of the exit so everyone was staring and laughing and my poor cousin had to ride it alone. At least this time she was with other people. Shame on me though, the ride had loads of little kids on it...I mean one of the people I was going on it with was a six year old! I just hate heights maaaan. 

You may think it was a waste of time of me going seeing as I didn't go on any rides but I saw a lot of animals which is my idea of a good day! We didn't make it to the actual zoo bit but I got to go in a pen full of goats which was good enough for me. I took no photos apart from the animals (and I don't think my family would appreciate their mugs on here anyways!) so I'll leave you with a few iPhone pics of my faves...non-animal lovers, look away now (and get off my blog anyway haha!)

A proper funky chicken! I don't know if you can really see but he had feathery legs. There was also ones that looked like they had pom-poms on their heads, they were hilarious.

Pink Flamingoes!

I don't know what the hell this is, it looked like a giant guinea pig but it went swimming. And I only just noticed that one behind it dribbling....caught it slippinnnnn'

I love donkeys! This one reminded me of Freddydog because it had a fat body and short legs haha. I took this for my mum who wasn't there because she loves donkeys also so this photo is her Mother's Day treat (I'm joking, I bought her this...I'm definitely going to be 'borrowing' the necklace!)

My new BFF! How cute? And also weird? I have decided to call it Tiny. I love monkeys, I could watch them all day although it does make me feel sad to see animals in cages. I felt sorry for these because the kids climbing frames were built around their pens so all they gotta listen to all day is screaming kids and screaming mums ('JOSHUA! GET DOWN NOW OR YOU'LL GO IN THE BUGGY!' 'Nooooo!') Kind of hellish, poor monkeys. 

I know the photos aren't the best and all that but if you'd like to see more 'Day Out' posts with crappy iPhone pics let me know!
