Edinburgh zoo!

Hey sweeties!

All the way back in January, me and the boy went to Edinburgh for the day with one main intention. 

To visit the zoo!! 

I can't believe it's taken me this long to share these amazing photographs.

We got booked our tickets a week before hand through Red Spotted Hanky, with only in a week to go I was amazed that it was only £40 each return. 

With what felt like the quickest journey, we arrived at Waverly Place to meet our connection to Edinburgh Haymarket as it was the closest to the zoo. From there we got on a bus which took about 10 minutes.

When we got there the weather was quite dull and a bit rainy so no surprise the zoo was quite empty. 

Edinburgh zoo is more than amazing!

The fact that there was hardly anyone there meant we could just stand and take photos for a few minutes without people in our way and shoving us to move along. By the end of our visit to the zoo I was on the verge of selling everything I had to buy a zoo and to be honest even if I did I still wouldn't have enough but knowing that the zoo is only a few hours away will do for.

Photography for me is a hobby and I wouldn't say that I'm David Bailey or anything but I am rather proud of stills I captured. 

All photos were taken on my Panasonic TZ35.

 

This is Yang Guang, unfortunately we never saw Tian Tian.

Afterwards, we headed back into town having a browse in the many shops on Princes Street.

Whilst stopping over for a buger, which unfortunately I can't remember the name of :(

I love Edinburgh just wish we had more time to explore, hopefully is there is a next time it'll be for the weekend and not just the day.

Have you been? and What is your favourite thing to do there?

Much love,

My 21st

Hello lovelies! 

Times gone by so quick, since July I've been to Turkey, Edinburgh Zoo and finally I've turned 21!
You're probably thinking 'Well that ain't much' but, these three occasions have given me some of the most amazing memories!

First of all I'll start with my 21st birthday as that was the most recent thing that has happened. As my birthday was on a Monday I felt that the weekend before hand was the perfect time to go out; Kate, Tom and Nadia (the besties) came home from uni to celebrate. I decided I'd enjoy the night better if the girls went to town for a few hours before hand then the boys met up with us half way through the night. It was probably the best night I've had out. Y'know the morning after where people have a summary of the night as I only remember bits of it Kate's status helped a little.

"Day two of Miss Michelle's birthday I should say was another day/night of success 2 free bottles of champagne, and another half a bottle of a smurf, plenty of dancing and drinking, nearly crashing a wedding party oh and nearly punching a creepy stalker guy not to mention screaming to living on a pray (the rendition I just got this morning was beautiful btw) Oh and I think the hangover that is currently setting in from our birthday girl is just the proof of the 21st awesomeness. Well done people!"
Pretty eventful!

Can't believe I'm 21, doesn't feel any different apart from a pay rise and I am able to go clubbing in America!

Much Love,

M! xo
