Taronga Zoo

Thomas, Davis and I went to the Taronga Zoo in Sydney a few weeks back. After a two and a half hour train ride to Sydney we took a ferry to the zoo.

Taking the ferry is something different for us, so we enjoyed it! You get to see some of the best views of the city.

The zoo is located on the shores of the Sydney Harbour so you can see views of the water from most areas of the park. We were told to take the sky buckets up to the top and then walk down to the bottom but we ended up all over the place. Some of our highlights were obviously seeing the Koalas, Kangaroos, Wallabies, and Tasmanian Devil. Davis loved looking at the bird exhibit and petting some rabbits.

We all had a great time at the Zoo! 




We needed to get on the 8 o'clock train so we had time to head back to Circular Quay for dinner.  We walked around the Sydney Opera House, taking a bazillion pictures and enjoyed dessert while we watched the sunset.
