Yesterday we gave into the kids nagging and took them off to visit the zoo. After getting over the price!!!! ($57 which included 25% off from the Entertainment book voucher) we actually had a great time.
We arrived just in time to see the monkeys being fed by the keeper on Monkey Island. The kids loved seeing them mucking around and doing lots of tricks. When asked if anyone had any questions, String Bean asked the keeper if she could feed the monkeys.....please! The answer was no but he took the time to explain why and she didn't mind at all.
We then walked around the whole zoo. The highlights were seeing the penguins being fed by another keeper and watching the brown bear eat a block of ice full of sardines! Fuzzy had a great time 'trying' to get close to the kangaroos in the petting area. He had minimal success. Squealy loved everything especially the giraffes and the 'crocs' his favourite animals.
Pity about the entry cost. The kids had such a great time it is a real shame we can't visit more often.
