We're all going to the zoo today.....






This morning I surprised the kids with a train ride. We parked the car at Clarkson train station and got on. On the way I told the kids we were meeting Auntie Jacquie and the kids and that we were taking the train, bus and ferry to the Perth Zoo....
I then had some very happy and excited kids. It took us 2 hours to get there...cant rush these things but as the weather became steadily worse during the day we were mighty glad we didn't drive.
We were lucky enough not to get rained on until we stopped and fed the kids, and then it came down....and down and down...
We saw almost all the animals except for the Aussie exhibit and before heading home we visited the zoo shop.
We all got a little wet on the walk to the ferry, but once you get wet you cant get any wetter.
The best time to visit the zoo is when it is raining as the crowds stay away and because its nice and quiet and cool most of the animals come out.
we all had a wonderful day.

yes we sure did. We will have to do it again when you are safely married. Next time we will have to take your extra child as well
