Rainy day at the zoo, lots of crying kids, somebody pour me a drink!







This morning's skies looked not too bad, so I headed off to the Taronga zoo on the ferry. The zoo is on a beautiful location on the hillside overlooking the harbour. I checked out the new baby elephant, so cute. Saw the wallabies, kangaroos, koalas, tons of birds, giraffes, just to name a few. The vegetation was almost as interesting as the animals. Large ferns, bamboo and ecalyptus make the area really nice just for walking around.
It started to pour around noon, so I headed into the cafeteria along with all of the families (families = lots of kids)! Waited out the rain for about an hour, then started walking around again. Decided to call it a day around 3:30, as it looked like the clouds were building again.
