Crikey! We sure did have an Awesome time at Australia Zoo.

Brent and I headed up to Brisbane last weekend to catch up with Brents sister and brother and get away from Sydney for a long weekend.

Saturday was spent wandering round Southbank markets and getting to know Kellys new Border Collie puppy, Medusa who was rescued that morning.

Jaime and Kelly have a menagerie of animals, with 2 dogs (the other ones a rottweiler), 2 cats, 3 birds, a yabbie, and numourous fish (yabbie food) wandering their gorgeous 2 story house. I was well entertained by the antics of the 4 legged animals as they got to know the new puppy.

On Sunday we headed out to the Glasshouse Mountains to Steve Irwins Australia Zoo. This place is amazing! Steve puts every dollar he makes from it back into the zoo and you can tell. We started the day with shows in the Crocoseum. We saw tigers, snakes, free flying birds and of course the famous crocodile show.

The highlight of the day though had to be the tiger enclosure, where a glass wall is all there is between you and the frolicking tigers. The keepers play with the cats, throwing their toys into the water so they will leap in after them - Crikey - it was awesome!!

Thanks Jaime and Kelly for a great weekend.
