It had been many years since I last visited Taronga Zoo and, having been given a free entry pass, and it was a Friday, (see here) I thought it about time I went there again.
It was school holidays and it was going to be a warm sunny day so, it looked like everyone in Sydney had the same idea. There were lots of changes (I don't think the addition of dinosaurs was one of the good ones, but I'm not a little kid) and there were still big changes being construcred.
In the afternoon a bit of a wind came up and that made the ferry trip back a little more interesting. Overall, a good day.
