We've been working on reconciling that one, too!  We decided that going to the 
London Zoo doesn't count as "going to London" the same way a shopping trip, 
walking around the streets,  does.  There is parking right at the zoo, so Harry 
could've gone to the London Zoo and still be awed by the London street scenes.
