My Trip to Melbourne Zoo

We have just arrived and entering the Melbourne zoo. I am here with mum and Grandpa.

Wow it's huge. Hope I have a great time.

Uh-Oh it started to rain!

Phew it was only a short shower of rain.

The first animals we saw were the meerkats. We took lots of photos and videos.

Then we moved down the track to the tree kangaroos and red pandas.

Then we went down a lot of different paths with Gorillas, Elephants, Frogs, Reptiles, Lions, Tigers, Penguins, Seals, Pelicans, Stingray, Fish, Bugs, Apes, Monkeys, Otters, Hippos, Kangaroos, Birds, Emus, Bears, Big Cats, Small Cats, Peccaries, Orang-Utangs, Koals, Bongos, Giraffes, Zebras and even Lemurs!!!

We went back to the start and got some popcorn and we headed back to my Granpa's house.

I had a fantastic time at the zoo.

(We were there for three and a half hours!

The Trip to Sissy Bay

Two weeks ago my family and I(including Jed, our dog)drove to Sissy Bay for the weekend. When we got there(after about two and a half hours!)we got out of the car and started unloading. It took about twenty minutes doing that and when we finally did that we just sat down and did nothing.Phew! The next day it was very sunny so Dad went out to spray the weeds and of course Jed wanted to help!

All Mum did was lay in the sun reading a book and drink wine.

We were having a pretty lazy day and all we did was watch a movie. On Sunday Dad went out kayaking for a while and he saw dolphins chasing him so he came back to get me so he could show me.

When we got there the dolphins where gone. Anyway we still did some fishing. Mum and Jed could see us so Jed started barking.

On the way back to shore we also went through this cut through a mountain and the wind kept bashing us into the side of it. It was not pleasant.We were being pulled hard. We were paddling furiously trying to stay upright. Finally we got back to land! I walked up the hill while Mum and Dad kept throwing the stick for Jed. Our weekend was over and we drove back to Nelson and home.
