Evan and his friends Charles(top), Jackson (bottom left) and Guy (bottom right)
Today we had a fabulous day at Taronga Zoo, here in Sydney. Jackson is the lucky boy whose father is a Zoo Keeper!!!! What a great job. Anyway Jackson got to invite 3 of his friends and families to the Zoo for the day. It was awesome. We arrived at 9am and spent sometime at the Zoo education centre. Evan got to pat a baby croc...CRIKEY! (RIP Steve), an echidna, a koala, a turtle and get very up close and personal with an over friendly Emu. Evan loved the hands on experience and so did mummy and daddy.
Here are some pictures of the day... the boys were worn out and ready for a nap by Noon. They insisted on running everywhere, looking for more animals as they went.
This is Evan giving the little baby croc a pat. Apparently those little teeth can pack a mean bite.
The boys also discovered a big old tortoise in the yard, which had to be harrassed. They were fascinated by the size of it and its hard shell.
Evan was a bit disappointed that there weren't any elephants. We hope they will get here one day. Meanwhile the cement elephant did the trick in keeping happy.
