IT was jungle bells all the way for Santa last week as he flew into Blackpool Zoo to officially open his magic toy shop.
Four fluffy Arctic huskies pulled Father Christmas into the animal park on November 19 and it even snowed -- with a little human intervention -- in celebration of the zoo's annual Christmas Festival which begins on December 1.
Santa will be in his toy shop grotto each weekend from 10am throughout December to greet visitors of all ages, with a secret present for every child he meets. He will also be there on Christmas Eve.
Admission is £2.50 (not including zoo admission) or free with full zoo admission price.
