Fota Park

kensutz

With the success of the Dublin Zoo meet yesterday, I'm wondering if any of us Southerners are interested in going to Fota Park. The weekend I have in mind would be the first weekend of September.

oeb

I would be up for this, but I will be in the UK that weekend.

deRanged

I'm up for it.
any chance of getting 20? that would give group prices.

kensutz

Well oeb, I've thrown out the first weekend as a guide. I'd say most of us would be completely flexible on the exact date if needed.

UK the monday before it.So i don't think i will

don't forget the Cheetah feed at 4pm, worth seeing, also if you stay right till the end (about 5.30 or so) you'll see them bringing the Giraffes in which is interesting to see especially when the keepers have to protect themselfs from the aggressive head male

Live only a few miles from Fota so its not a problem to get there.
