Help WIth Trip for 40th Birthday

Hi All

Yes my time has come and im turing 40 next April......(NOooooooo).

Anyway, me the the sexy wife have thought about this and decided that we would rather do something different than have a party. i thought about being a zoo keeper for a day with a combind party for the family at Colchester zoo. But they only do it for children.

The we thought we would go away for a week over my birthday period. But where to go for a week. can anyone suggest a location and or things to do at that location as well. WOuld rather stay away from a beach holiday as not into laying in sun all day. I like wildlife and photography.

ANy help would be great.

Many Thanks everyone

Gary

    What about something like renewing your wedding vows in a white chapel at santorini for you and yourwife a mate of mine was gonna do this for her 40th birthday.
    Or on the wildlife side what about a weeks safari in kenya.

    Might be way off mark but just an idea.

    have a good time whatever you decide to do.

    You could always ask the zoo if they would consider an adult doing the zookeeper for the day thing
