Pictures from our day at the Australia Zoo

The Australia Zoo turned out to be awesome.  Not only was it a great zoo, but very interactive for the kids.  Everything from feeding kangaroos to feeding elephants to holding koalas.  We got to do it all.  Or at least everything we wanted to.  I passed on the holding of the snakes.  In addition to the pictures below we got an excellent picture of Lily and Chris holding a Koala.  It was very touristy, but a very cute picture none the less.

On the day we visited the zoo, the Irwin family (remember Steve Irwin died... killed by a stingray) but his widow and two kids have taken over his activities and have become crocodile (and other dangerous animal) crazy just like Steve.  The widow, Terri, is actually from Oregon.  The two kids also have their own TV shoes.  They did a great show at the "Crocoseum" while we were there.  Yes, they were crazy at trying to feed incredibly large crocs.  Ugh.  But they were very educational as well.

Lily thoroughly enjoyed her day at the zoo.

You do know that there's a pretty spiffy zoo right here in sunny San Diego, right?!? :)
