So we went to wildlife world and it was amazing!! We started off the trip with insects, they were creepyy. Spiders, centipedes, crickets, stick bugs,beetles, praying mantis', SPIDERS!! It was creepyy. Next were the snakesss. There were some huge ones and some little cute but deadly ones that are aparently very common in Sydney.. GREAT! Then we saw lizards, gheccos and things of that nature. They were cool. Then *drumroll please* we saw the GIANT CROCODILE!! And, I'm telling you... It was HUGE!! Haha, the funny thing is was they tried to save him because he was aparently snatching dogs off the bank and it was only a short jump th children. So they moved him to a wildlife reserve to try and breed him. He ate his first mate then a couple years later ate the 2nd one. They figured he wasn't meant for breeding and brought him to the Wildlife World. I think that was a good idea. Don't you? Next... BATS! They were nothing compared to the bats we saw in real life on my mom's birthday. We then saw these cute little rodents. I forget what they were called but they looked like giant mice that can hop! Next, KOALA's!! We got to pet them. They really felt like sheep.. (hense the title) and they were so gentle. It was really the best moment of my life. Next we saw the Kangaroos. Now these creatures are the wierdest things you have ever seen. Like ever. They are sooo strange and skinny. The hop sooo fast. Then we saw these frogs. And one of them looked like a blob of green goo stuck to a leaf. No joke. Then we saw wallabes. These little things are so adorable!! Then we saw a cookabara. Not very interesting just sits on the branch. Next, more koalas!! Last, but not least... BUTTERFLIES!!! They were amazing. You stuck your arm out and they would land on you. They tickled. Heehee. Wait, on our way out there was an owl thing that they showed people. He was super soft.
The next day we went to the Museum of Sydney. It was very cool. My favorite thing was the Aboriginal Gallery. I learned that they made their canoe's out of paper bark. And they also used paper bark to mend canoes, make baskets, and use as bandages. It was really cool. That whole gallery really was all I got out of that museum. Pictures later.. For our first days go to this link for pictures of our first day out in sydney.
