Towards the end of the Summer holidays, David scored some Gold Passes for the Zoo - Yay! Mum, Sarah and I met Jeff at Circular Quay and we all caught the ferry together. We met Dim and Jack at the entrance to the Zoo after a quick lift up the hill from Susi.
We all had a wonderful day. It was hot and sunny, and the kids (Jack and Sare) had a blast together looking at all the animals. We sat on the steps where the bird show usually is for a home-baked frittata for lunch - thanks Dim!
The highlight for the day was definitely seeing the elephants - Luk Chai, the baby elephant was simply gorgeous at playtime, playing with his soccer ball and another ball attached to a rope, which he flung about his head!
The kids also enjoyed splashing about in a man-made rockpool built especially for toddlers and small children. As it was a hot day, there was many a little toddler spashing about - nappies out everywhere...LOL!
Jack and Sarah were in hysterics at the monkey enclosure as we were putting our heads in the monkey cut-out for photos...Jack's laughter was priceless. He thought Sarah was especially funny with her own head, but on the body of an ape!!!
After a long and exhausting, but inexpensive day (thanks a bunch Grandad for the free tix), we headed back by ferry to Circular Quay and hopped a train for home.
Thanks family for a wonderful summer day spent soaking in all the wonders of our Taronga Zoo. Much love xxx
