East Coat Park and the Night Safari

As the family we're staying with live so close to East Coast Park we thought it was important that we make the trip there and it was the closest to the perfect opportunity for Tom and I to go on our run that we'd said we'd go on since being here, however it is slightly different weather to back in the UK and to my dismay Tom had us running in 35 degree temperatures in the midday sun! However, once we got on our way we didn't struggle "too" much. The park was as lovely as ever as we ran along the sea on the right and jungle on the left it distracted us from the struggle of running as there was so much to look at.. Once we'd reached the edge of the park we stopped for a chinese lunch of fried rice and fresh crayfish which did the job to push us on to run back to the start.. We arrived back the house sweaty and worn out but pleased with our perseverance. 

We headed to the night safari just as it hit dusk where we were meeting Lottie to see the creatures of the night.. 
It was good, however we struggle se some of the animals in the dark, but enjoyed the sights of the roaming deer, rhino and new baby giraffe that was born just a few days ago.
