  What a wonderful time we had on our holiday!  We had first hand experience on the farm, feeding the animals and milking the cows.  Our souls were warmed as our fluffy friends came to say hello!     We had a fabulous day at Colchester Zoo.  We waved at the huge lions and watched them stride proudly around their enclosure.  We went to the African Plains and greeted the elephants, giraffes, zebras and ostriches.  We saw lemurs, wallabies, monkeys, snakes, insects, hippos and many more amazing animals.  We even got to hold the giant stick insects and see the cockroaches up close!       Our days at the farm were brilliant.  The man showing us around was very friendly and told us lots about the animals.  We fed the cows, sheep & donkeys. There were llamas, Shetland ponies and a lovely pond with ducks and geese.  We laughed at the chickens who ran around enthusiastically!   ...
