I helped Natasha take the kids to the hospital for their vaccinations as Darren was back at work. It was good I went because it ended up taking 3 hours and Natasha had to re-park the car! They were so brave and didn't cry at all!!! At one point Anna said 'did you know adults have smaller brains than children?' which was hilarious.

There was stall on stall of amazing food produce. It was really interesting to look around and I...

First I held Mia then Claire! We fed Kangaroos and Wallaby's. We had nice homemade egg sandwiches for lunch. We then saw bats, black lepoards, wombats, pelicans, otters, eagles, dingos, camels and even petted lambs, deer and baby goats. It was great fun!!! As it was a long day ...
