zoo day

apart from going to Taronga Zoo a few years back it has been years (like 10) since I'd visited Perth Zoo. We get free passes year round through work since we sponsor the woylie so my bestie and I thought we'd give it a go.

When I was a kid everytime we went to the Zoo Mum would take us on the train in, then the ferry over the river and that's where the Zoo is so that's what my friend and I did. After paying $10 each for our day ticket we were told that we could have gotten a family pass together and only paid $10 between the two of us since it was a saturday...fail!

We stopped off at Atomic Cafe in South Perth on the way for some much needed sustanance...*insert food pic*

I can definitely reccomend this place. It was quite loud but the food was good and it was one of the only cafe's on the strip with aircon. Considering it was 40 degrees outside we wer VERY happy to eat there!

We had an absolutely awesome day. Being so hot there was hardly anyone there...and apart from slapping the sunscreen on often (though there was actually alot of shade) we didn't feel the heat as much as I thought we would!

My favourites by far were the meekats (alot smaller than I thought they'd be). They were the funniest little things. Also the elephants and the giraffes though I couldn't get a picture close enough to them!

We were pretty exhausted at the end of the day and we treated ourselves to these scrummy passionfruit melting moments for the ferry ride back!

We run out of time for the reptiles lol so I'll definitely be going back:)
