Well we got up today and Maureen was a bit stiff and sore, I
am not going to tell you why, but that gives me a “segway” to talk about what I
can tell you. Today is Australia Zoo day, we are off out to see what Steve
Irwin started. The first thing that hits you is that their salary bill must be
huge as they have staff everywhere, they are constantly walking animals around
and you can get your picture taken with them for free. They have a wide range
of animals to see and we finally got to see a cassowary, maybe not in the wild
but in Queensland.

The place is well kept without being pristine and they have
wild mobs of brush turkeys who live there in the gardens as well as hundreds of
water dragons who are about 50 cms long with huge tails who just about run the
place.

Maureen and I were both not feeling 100% so we did not do
the place properly, I think we were suffering from the heat. Whatever it was we
saw the show and had a sit in the cool and then headed home. Back in the car
with the air con going I felt a bit better and when we got home to Girt and had
a rest in

the cool there we both perked up. Where we are is right next to a
shopping centre and Maureen went hunting and gathering for tea and returned
with prawns and fresh bread!
Tomorrow we head to Surfers.
