dublin zoo

OK. Anyone who's followed this blog from the beginning has seen lots of zoo photos!

I bet you thought that since we moved to Dublin and no longer live a five minute walk from the zoo like we did in Barcelona, you'd be seeing less zoo pics! Well, you were wrong :)

We have joined Dublin zoo now and, although we live further away, we still plan to go often! Here are some pics from our first visit...

Dublin zoo is located in Phoenix Park close to the city centre. To get there, we drive through town, along the quays... and past Heuston station to the park...


... and the Four Courts, around past Heuston station to the park...


The boys were eager to get to the zoo...

I had heard that Dublin zoo had changed a lot since we were kids and it's true. The place is much bigger now -with the huge new African Plains area around the lake- the animals have much more space and better landscapes and it's much better all round.








Vegetation in bloom and spring in the air...
