Zoo observations

Zoo was great - practically had the place to ourselves – probably because the weather was so crappy. Luckily it was ‘feeding time’ so the animals came out of hiding. Saw giraffes, lions, a tiger, red pandas, chimps, monkeys, kangaroos, ostriches, bears and plenty of birds - every kind of animal you have ever seen in a children’s ABC book (except elephants and aardvarks).

There supposedly were kiwis in a special nocturnal animal display but we never did find them – either it was too dark for us to see or they were hiding really well.
