Monday 2 September 2019 - Australia Zoo - Part 1

Set off this morning for a 30 minute drive arriving at Australia Zoo right on opening time.  There was already about 30 cars there.  There was no waiting at the gate which was good.   We wandered around the zoo seeing all the normal animals, giraffes, hippos, zebras, meerkats, otters, snakes, lizards, kangaroos, koalas etc, etc and of course crocodiles.  

I love the picture of the giraffe that has its legs spread apart so that it can get its head down to ground level.  It is in the picture below in the very middle of the shot.  There is another giraffe leaning on him.

While looking at the wombats the keeper came and put a harness of it and they went off to do a tour of the zoo so people could get a closer look.

They had a kids playground and water park which was being enjoyed by quite a few.   There is also a wetland area.
