I can see you Launa.







Well where else to go after the visa news? The Zoo... Tarronga Zoo infact - which the guide told us is the Aborigini word for 'Sea View' but which Sandra misheard, magnificintly, as the aborigini word for 'I can see you.' Her dream almost came true when we were minutes inside the zoo and she was allowed to have her photograph taken with Launa the koala bear (she did manage to keep control of herself and not do any stroking and in the process not risk the wrath of the law).

The zoo itself was bizarre - like half of noah's ark -with only one of every animal. But they did have tree kangaroos (kangaroos that live in trees and hop along the branch's - why has the world not been told that these exsist?) and red pandas. They also had red belly snakes (The err... black snakes above) which were found in the bushes around our cabin in Tuggerah.
