Australia Zoo

The next day, Wednesday, we went to Australia Zoo. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel, as I was pretty upset when Steve Irwin passed away. The Zoo have handled everything really well and have done the man a lot of justice and honour with the way they have continued to run things. I can't believe how much fun all the staff seemed to be having.

The zoo was so extremely clean and well taken care of and the animals were gorgeous. It was a joy to watch the kids discover all sorts of things.

Nicholas made himself very comfortable with a kangaroo at one stage. We were really lucky in the bird show, too, as the black cockatoo and mccaw landed just in front of us. Nick tried to pat their tail, but we pulled him back, just in case.

Again, all three children were really good, but so tired at the end of the day.

Here is a croc, as what would a story about Australia Zoo be without mentioning the crocs? This is Graham (the croc) and he is HUGE! I couldn't believe the bone-tingling CHOMP sound this big fella made when he chomped down on the food! Scary-bananas!!

So that is the most of what we did on our holidays. Of course there was a lot of swimming at the beach and pool, but I was so unwell that I barely took any photos. I know! Can't believe it, can you? John was astounded!! lol

I have some layouts to share next post.
