A Day at the Australia Zoo

Kelsey had been quite excited to go to the Australia Zoo ever since she moved to the Sunshine Coast. Many fond stories of the Calgary Zoo have been told (We are glad the animals were re-located during the floods) but we had always heard that the zoo here is just as amazing.

So one fine sunny day we decided to go on a journey to introduce ourselves to our neighbours. ....but little did we know that such a vast world of wildlife inhabited a zoo just 25 mins from our houses!

This is what our day looked like

Koalas sleep up to 20 hours a day. I guess they only really need 4 hours to get the important things done.

Kels found some Kangaroos grazing in the park

I had a bit of a graze myself...

Kelsey feeding this big fellow. 'The inside of his trunk is soooo wet!' Kelsey exclaimed

What's the go with this little fur ball? (bottom left corner)

He was heading to have a kip in the leaves

On our way to Africa we smashed some dixie drumsticks and I got my 'tourist jumper waist tie' on. Dad would be proud

These Giraffes were too good for us

But not this Camel. He was all too happy to stop and turn on his charm

This Rhinoceros Iguana was putting some work into his tan all day. Seriously, he didn't move all day...what a life!

Possible scarf accessory?

Kels might stick to her current scarf selection

Have you ever seen an echidna on a log? From now on you can answer 'yes'

Kels and I had a great day and we were quite tuckered out afterwards! We hope to take everyone there eventually, we'd be quite happy to have to go back there again :)

Thanks for listening/looking at our first blog post.

We are hoping to keep this up to date. So we'll see yah soon!

Kelsey and Matt
