The Zoo

(Louvelle’s Apartment, Glebe (Sydney), Australia)

Had a late night last night, so we were up a tad later than usual (some more so than others). While Louvelle showered, I headed to the local grocery store and grabbed some sausages for breakfast. We cooked those up with some eggs and pancakes, and finally made our way to Circular Quay for noon (or midday, as they say here).

Missed the first ferry by a bit, so we sat around for a while and caught the next one to Taronga Zoo (which sounds a lot like Toronto Zoo when Australian’s say it). The zoo was big, and had a fair bit of everything. We started with the Australian section, and slowly made our way through the rest of it. If you’ve seen one zoo, you’ve nearly seen them all – but the spectacular views of Sydney Harbour made it a worthwhile trip. The zoo sits opposite the CBD, so you get a good view of the Opera House, and a slightly obscured view of the bridge.

After that we headed to Central Station for a late lunch, then Louvelle and I parted ways. She’s off to dance rehearsal (am I starting to sound like a broken record?), so I’m at home uploading pictures. Will probably do a bit of reading after this, and probably some laundry tonight.
