Day out at Melbourne Zoo

William and I went to the Melbourne Zoo today.  Recently they opened a new "Keeper Kids" Area and William spent about 2 hours playing in there today.  You can dress up as a Zoo Keeper, a Vet, a Horticulturist and a Researcher.  Here are some great shots.  We spent about 4 hours at the Zoo, 2 hours in here and 2 hours seeing Live Animals - William's favourites, Tigers, Elephants, Frogs, Penquins, Giraffe's and the Lion, who roared very loudly today!!!
