On Friday night I went to Zoo Lates at London Zoo with my boyfriend and a few of our friends. The tickets were bought for my boyfriends birthday back in March so I've been counting down the days since then! We had such an amazing night but it went so quickly only being open for four hours. On the way up there we stopped off in Camden for a drink and some dinner at wagamamas as we were quite early. We arrived at the zoo about 20 minutes after it had opened and it was already so busy! We went straight to the beer tent and got a drink and wandered round some of the animals before our other friends arrived to meet us. I ended up getting quite tipsy which was hilarious - being drunk at the zoo is so much fun haha. We didn't manage to go into the rainforest as they wouldn't let us in with our drinks which was annoying because that was the part I was probably looking forward to the most. As you can see in the first picture we bought some giraffe ears which were so adorable! We had a slow walk round and ended up in the reptile house which was amazing - snakes are such cool creatures. We never managed to see the penguins, giraffes or gorillas as they were closed by the time we got round to them. They actually closed the gorillas early because they were getting angry which we thought was quite funny? It did seem a bit strange though that all the animals bedtime was 9pm when Zoo Lates was on till 10pm - what are you meant to do for that last hour? We wondered round the gift shop trying on animal masks! Overall, a really fun night and I will definitely be returning next year.
Zoo Lates is held every Friday night in June & July. You can buy tickets around February/March time on the ZSL London Zoo website.
