Hi Again,

Here we are now in Brisbane, been here a few days now so have had a day to walk around the city and explore Southbank and the City beach the art gallerys gardens etc great little city so much going on they seem to have a festival every week.

So yesterday we went to Australia Zooo has ben years since we last went and Steve irwin was alive then, had a great day so much has changed but still a very clean and beautiful place you almost forget you are in a Zoo it is so open, we saw david Copperfield having a VIP tour as he is touring at the mo and when we were waiting for the bus stop waiting to go to the zoo we saw Glen Mcgrath!!! so it was very sad to see all the peoples notes at a shrine for Steve irwin but was very nice that so many peopled cared the have renamed the road to the zoo after him, We had the most amazing experience of your lives we spent 30 minutes with a Tiger and on, had loads of photos she was only 2 years old and quite playfull, unfortunatly we could not scruff her head or play with her paws but we could do most other things she was so soft and so calm we sat talking to her and strokin gher it was amazing the keepers were really good and nice and friendly, I have loaded a few photos but we have some being sent to England from the Zoo.

I really never thought I would get anywhere near a tiger execpt with glass inbetween never mind being able to stroke her, truly a one in a life time expereince one we will never forget, and half of our money goes to help the Tigers in the wild.

Must go have markets to visit off to Sunshine coast tomorrow so will keep you updated.
