Twycross Zoo

Lily and Taylor found a somewhat local zoo. It was a privately owned zoo up until 1972 and they are still trying to update the facility to make it more than the "personal menagerie" that it was before. We saw Gibbons, Gorillas, Oragatngus, Elephants, various Lemurs, Giraffes, and some new animals we had never seen. Capybaras, a jackalope looking animal (Maras), Asiatic Lions, and Binobos (over sexed chimpanzees) :)! It was pretty fun and great to be doing something other then seeing castles or large houses. Lily's favorite zoo animals were the Pink Flamingos. All she could do all days was point and say "OH!" at everything she saw.
