Tien Tien (also known as Sweetie in english)

There is nothing like being back in your own bed, but we had a lovely time away in Edinburgh. Such a fascinating city and, in all honesty, we ran out of time to see and do everything we wanted to do. With two small kids in tow and a Panda’s at the zoo, Edinburgh Zoo was top of our list to visit.

As lovely as Panda’s are, and we had a very enthusiastic guide, who furnished us with loads of information and made it great visit, my heart lies with the big cats.  In particular the Jaguar. Edinburgh Zoo even has a male with a black coat. Heaven for me.  I could have stayed and watched them all day.

So glad you had a good time ...the Zoo is great but a little sxpensive for a family ...we live over in Fife and are planning another day at the zoo soon. Did you use a Tour bus to go round the city ...well worth it if you buy it early am ....do the trip ...then use the ticket to go round again but jump on and off at points of interest. Hope you visit again.
btw ..fantastic shots ... especially the jaguar ...mine are rubbish. xx

Awesome photos! I love the big cats too and got some fantastic photos of the jaguars when we took the kids to Chester Zoo last month. :)
