July 2oth - 26th
We went to a
small wildlife park in the middle of suburbia ...it's 37 yrs old and hasn't changed much since I went as a child , then took my teenager as a toddler and school child. Monday my friend and I took S & J to enjoy one of Australia's largest private collections of Australian native animals and bird life.

These are awesome animals and looks like the kids were having fun!
Great zoo shots. Looks like a great day.
The ice cream cone picture is adorable.
That is soooo cool! I know there are lots of fun animals that aren't native to your continent, but seriously, you have some of the best (and cutest) species on the planet.
I wonder if Fairy Penguins give Aussie kids the idea that penguins are magical?
