An Optimistic Advent Calendar - Day 5

Ding Dong Merrily on High! Welcome to day 5 of 'An Optimistic Advent Calendar'. From now until the 24th, I'll be bringing you a daily dose of Christmas cheer by sharing all sorts of festive makes and bakes, things to see and do and of course, lots of pretty pictures - all served up with an extra handful of seasonal sparkle. So pop back tomorrow for another look.




Stop what you're doing! This, is awesome - You can take a lantern-lit night time tour of world renowned Chester Zoo this Christmas. Follow a trail of lights to the Elephant House and Fruit Bat Forest on your way to the Zoo's Manor Gardens where you'll see a parade of stunning, light-filled animal sculptures handmade especially for the event, by The Lantern Company. Then, when you start to get chilly, you can head to June's Pavillion for a special lantern supper and a cup of hot Christmas punch.




What a gorgeous idea! Ticket's here http://www.chesterzoo.org/must-sees/christmas-lantern-magic
