Taronga zoo

Eventually off to zoo today 17th june and when looked out off window was sunny, what a relieve. Off to zoo with Kate and Hisako, as when mentioned Kate really wanted to do. We got train to central again due to train works. We were waiting for the free Green bus but seemed to be taking ages so decided to start walking. Then trust it to arrive so had to run back to bus stop luckily waited for us. The bus dropped us off at circular quay and got ferry from there to Tarongo zoo.
Once got to Tarongo zoo we wanted to go on sky safari but since I hadn't bought zoo ticket yet, we couldn't. So we ended up having to get bus to top of zoo entrance. Then I had to join a long queue for my tickets, so unfortunately missed seal show at 11 but can see later.
First stop koala's which were very cute but were trying to hide in the tree. Then the reptiles which definitely weren't as cute!! The giraffes were good had my picture taken next to the baby giraffe statue which was still taller than me. The views of Sydney were lovely you can see why their picked the zoo to be there. It was then time for the free flight birdshow at 12 which was very good lasted about 30minutes. Couldn't believe how big the vultures wings were.
It was then lunch a lovely hot did and time for seal show at 1pm. Which actually wasn't as good as the bird show and was abit too short only lasted 15minutes. It was then time to see rest of the animals felt like a big kid as wanted to see everything. Saw the elephant stand on two legs and do some tricks. Walked through enclosure off kangaroos and got picture taken. Was a nice idea as felt liked their we're in the wild. Not sure saw all the Australian big 5 which is koala, kangaroo, platypus, emu and wombat. As didn't see the wombat but the platypus was very cute kept swimming in circles, want a teddy now.
We then went to catch the sky safari but could only do one trip. The views of Sydney were amazing and even got to elephant from above. Could see all the boats and yachts on the sea. I think I had seen most of the animals apart from penguins. When got to bottom just made the ferry in time.
When got back, Hisako went home but me and Kate went to have a look round round Royal Botanical Gardens. Which was very big definitely couldn't manage to get round it all in the time we had. Then it was time to catch train backup Rhodes and go view another apartment.
This a time apartment to live with a girl 29yrs old which thought might be better. The room itself was ok but not as nice as last one. Also thought would only be 15-20mins, but was their 45mins as she could talk. So not sure if it's for me also didn't show me round complex which has swimming pool aswell. Might see if can extend here then aim to move July instead.
