lions and tigers and ... kangaroos?

on sunday the group took a trip to the taronga zoo. it has been said that the view from the zoo is the same view from p. sherman 42 wallaby way. some of the girls wanted to find the dentist office, but sadly this was the closest we ever got ): this zoo is so cool though! it's like built on the side of a mountain or something because we need to take these sky-lift like contraptions to the top. it was sunny and cloudless when we went so the view on the way up was breath-taking. once in we booked it straight to the kangaroo exhibit. this was a really cool one because there was a path the you could use to walk through the exhibit. you had to stay on it but the kangaroos could come up to you if they wanted to. i think they were enjoying the sun too much though because they were literally just lying there without a care in the world. next we saw exhibits of wombats, koalas, wallabies, tasmanian devils, emus, and so many other animals that are native to australia. one funny thing though is that there were exhibits for deers, chickens, goats, pigs, and cows. definitely was not expecting that! after the zoo a lot of the group went to do the bridge climb, i didn't have enough money to go so me and some others walked around the rocks market and the sydney contemporary museum. there were so much walking needed for both that when i got home my feet went straight up to try to redistribute some of the blood that had probably pooled at the bottom of my feet, haha. for dinner i tried some kangaroo pizza and it actually wasn't that bad! it tastes kind of like beef? i don't know. it wasn't bad at all though. next on my list is some crocodile! <3

kangaroo love <3
