Sun + Zoo = a happy Sarah

It was sunny on Friday!!! So I walked through the botanic gardens, saw some bats and ate breakfast overlooking the bridge and the Opera House. Then I jumped on a ferry to the zoo. It was a good day!


Bats!!! (I thought they were giant tree seeds until they moved and I jumped)



Pretty fall colors...Where I ate breakfast, who I ate breakfast with and what I looked at while eating breakfast...



Clouds and the bridge... taken off the ferry on the way to the zoo
I am still in awe that I got to see this so I have like 50 pictures of it.

See told you I was in awe... I had to take a picture of me and the Opera House.
Baby seal that would chase cars with stuffed seals on them from the gift shop. I think I spent a good 20minutes watching the people who worked in the gift shop play with him (his tank had a window into the gift shop)


They had Guiena Pigs at the zoo!! I was so freaking excited about this. It made me miss my Twitchy and Gus Gus. So I took a picture of one that reminded me of a baby Gus. Except this one wasn't petrified of the world.
The view from the zoo.


I want a dingo... how cute is it? This zoo also had an open walk-thru exhibit but this time with Wallabees. This little guy was just chillin and eating grass next to the path. I watched him for awhile then decided he didn't care that I was there so I had a random person take my picture with him. It looks like I am clawing him in this picture, I swear I was just giving him a good scratch!!
The Giraffe exhibit looked over the city and the giraffe were so cool. I went back after this and watched one gallop around the pen. Boy they are awkward when they run!


No this isn't a picture of random people. Look for the owl over the lady in black. Right after this picture was taken he swooped over my head and touched my hair. This was at the free flight bird show. They had tons of different birds, all trained to do something. It was really cool.
This tiger was so cute! Though when do I not find an animals cute?
Lions! The female was playing with a rock for awhile before this and looked just like a blown up version of a house cat.
