Today, I must say, was an awesome day. We took our first trip out to the Australian Zoo, which, if you dont know, is where Steve Irwin spent his life in the persuit of saving and protecting animals of all kinds, particularly crocodiles :).
Well, I'm just going to come rightout and say it that we lucked out big time and got to watch the Wildlife Warriors Show at the Crocoseum that featured the Irwin family themselves which as far as we know isnt often. We got to see Wes(Steves bestmate), Terri, Bindi, and Robert(who is an exact replica of his father). So they talked for a bit then they brought out the croc, I'm pretty sure his name was Monty, and they did a demonstration with him. We got to see Bindi feed Monty and Wes get chased throught the water(apparently Monty hates Wes). It was quite an enjoyable show.
NOTE: If you are ever filming something that you are so happy that you are filming that you cant wait to watch it later, make sure that you are actually filming it :(. I made the mistake of not waiting for the delay on my camera and didnt realise that it wasnt filming and missed the whole thing, BALLS.
We also got to see the tiger show and got some awesome pics of them.
What an awesome place it was and we plan to go back there one more time before we leave Brisbane.
I just have to say, that if you are at all a lover of Steve Irwin, like I am, walking into that place makes you want to cry(I teared up a bit, such a wimp I know), because of all the love that there was for Steve and everything they have there in memorium of Steve. It was amasing.
PS. We also saw the Irwins when nobody else did, being all happy and normal, and what can I say, I blew it because I didnt want to be a gawking tourist and bug them I didnt even say anything to them. But we still got to see them and no one else we know(or I know anyway) can say that. :D (not to brag or anything)
Anyway
Lots of Love
Heather
