Paradise Wildlife Park is an animal park located in Broxbourne, Hertfordshire. It is right on our doorstep, so it is no surprise that I have visited this attraction multiple times both as a child and a parent. The zoo has undergone a major transformation in my lifetime transforming from the worst zoo in Britain to one of much acclaim. As with many attractions, Paradise Wildlife Park was put under significant strain when forced to close its gates in response to COVID-19. They eventually opened again in late June. Eager to show our support for a local attraction much loved by my family, we immediately booked our tickets to visit once again.

In my early twenties, I was lucky enough to take on a summer job at Camp Skylemar in the US state of Maine. It was an amazing experience and one I will forever cherish. It was during that summer that I first became aware of US state capitals as the kids often challenged one another to name the corresponding capital for each state. The idea of capitals beyond Washington DC was not one I had given much thought towards prior to that summer. However, it got me thinking about my own country of residence. Do we have the equivalent of state capitals here in England?

One method I use for inspiration on projects to add to The Edison Project is to think about all the places that I have said I would like to visit, but that I have not got around to. With this train of thought it is very easy to get tied down on those far-flung destinations you would like to travel to without giving thought for those closer to home.

This is without doubt the longest period between blog posts. It was never my intention to go offline for such a long period of time, but in pursuit of one experience in particular, I have faced numerous challenges that meant my energy was best spent elsewhere. It has also hindered my progress in tackling other experiences on The Edison Project for 2018, a list I am still yet to publish.
