Melbourne Zoo












We took the very fast train to Melbourne yesterday to visit the zoo. We had to change trains at Southern Cross Station and catch a Met train to Royal Park Station where the zoo is situated. It was amazingly easy to find out about and to catch the second train. We only had to wait one minute.


The Zoo was great, It took us from 10.00am until about 3.30pm to explore the whole zoo and we still managed to miss seeing some animals and attractions. Highlights for us were the Orangatans posing for our photos, a baby monkey swinging around the jungle gym, a butterfly landing on Natasha's head and of course the Meerkats.


Lower points of the day were being dropped on by a seagull while having lunch and having to stand in the train on the way home for over an hour.


On the whole it was a great day and the kids slept very well last night.
