Tom's Living Coasts Photo Album


So here I am fellow bloggers, armed with my digital camera and ready to take photos. As mentioned in my blog below about my trip to Living Coasts I said that I took loads of photos of the things me and Simon saw there!

I've looked through all my photos I took and decided to pick out the best to show you. So here they are below...


The penguins enclosure This was the first exhibit - the penguins. Had to be careful here as they were allowed to roam amongst the public, and have been occasionally known to bite people, so I quickly took my photo and moved on!

Overview of Living Coasts I took this as I approached the seal enclosure, here you can see the overview of one area of Living Coasts. I had to get Simon to lift me up so I could get a good view in taking this photo, otherwise being small like I am I would have only got a picture of the fence with some bushes.

Overview of Living CoastsHere's a picture of some cute seals that liked to play around on this rock. Apparently they are only babies and are brother and sister. I never knew, before I visited here that seals could honk as loud as these did, they certainly loved their food too!

This almost concludes my Living Coasts Adventure, but to end off the day, I managed to get my photo taken with two new friends I made on my visit...

I'm almost coming to the end of my Torquay trip, but I still have a few more photos to share with you yet!

Love,

Tom.

Tom meets Pudsey

Yes! Last Friday, I got to catch up with one of my celebrity friends. Pudsey Bear himself!!! He travelling from his hometown - Pudsey, where else? to London for rehearsals with Sir Terry for that evening's Children In Need show, so I got to catch up with him and see how things are going!

The smaller Pudsey in the picture is one of his other many fans that had seen him arriving so wanted to meet his hero! You should have seen his little estatic face! It was a picture!

Anyway, thanks to everyone's donations Children In Need managed to raise £18 million, but of course you can still donate. All you need to do is click on the link below to find out more.

Till next time,

Tom's Living Coasts Adventure!


Hello my furry friends!!

Tom here once again, I've been busy on my travels lately to haven't had much chance to post about all my exciting adventures. But anyway, here we are back when I visited Torquay during the summer.

The photo above shows me outside a place called Living Coasts, which Simon had told me before we went was were loads of sea birds and animals lived. He told me that I had better be on my best behaviour because us cats are rather fond of birds so to speak, and due to the fact the place was in the open air (apart from a huge net covering it) he thought I might get a bit too excited and start chasing after them.

After we paid to go in, there was a long maze of corridors to go through before getting to the first exhibit, I had nearly exhausted my little legs trying to keep up with Simon before we had reached the start of the place.

In the first area, it was inside a building which told you all about Living Coasts and the sort of things we would see there. There was a chance to see things like puffins and seals when they dived under water. I kept a look out but as it was a warm day most of the creatures were outside.

But I kept my watchful eye, just in case!

Once we got outside, I got my brand new digital camera ready to take some photos.


It was very exciting seeing all the different creatures. I couldn't stay long with some of the birds like the penguins because they were allowed to roam about amongst the public and apparently they could get a little nasty! However, I managed to take a lot of pictures with my camera, of which I post some to show you over the weekend, as this blog thing doesn't like it when you try to add more than three pictures at a time.

That's all for now,

Tom.
