A day trip to the Zoo!

Today Charlotte's school were lucky to spend the whole day at the Tasmanian Zoo, used to be called Launceston Lakes out the back of Riverside. William and I decided to go out there for the day and spend time with Charlotte as well as to get to see some animals.
William loved it and as per usual was every where! Charlotte liked the start as it was all te birds and they made a heap of noise and she started to make her sounds to join in! She was also very alert and looking around at the noises she could here.
William really liked the Cockato as it kept saying hello to him which he thought was pretty cool. I think he sat and watched it for a good 5 minutes which was a miracle in its self!
Other highlights of the day were Seeing some Tassie Devils, feeding the goats that were rather cheeky and puuting their face in your face to make sure you knew they were there. Seeing some very cheeky monkeys that tried to take the digital camera of Carolyne (one of the teachers) as she was taking a picture of it! Seeing some snakes luckily behind the glass. Charlotte getting to pat a Tassie devil, and just hanging out on a nice day, as first up this morning I thought that they would cancel the trip as it was showering at 9am today, but lucky for everyone that the weather was overcast but the rain stayed away.


William loved playing with Kobe and kept running up to him and saying baby.

It was a great time for the kids. Noah was really alert too.
