Longleat Safari Park

And then the crowning achievement was Longleat Safari Park (Thanks Jane!).  This was superb.

The first half of the experience is driving around the grounds seeing the animals.  Lions, Tigers, wolves, rhinos all ambling at their leisure near the cars.  Pretty impressive.

The thing that really got C and D excited was when we drove through the monkey area.  They have 50+ rhesus monkeys running everywhere, who then jump on your car and try to remove souvenirs from your car.

And then indoors, the kids got to hold big snakes.  C insists this is a rock python.

And this is D just after handing the rock python back to the handler!
