Muttaburrasaurus is watching us
As I have mentioned in a previous post my son is an absolute fan of dinosaurs, so when I saw the ads on tv for the dinosaurs at Taronga Zoo we knew we had to take him.
It's been about two years since we were last at the zoo. And let me tell you I was very impressed at how much had actually changed. We drove as I knew that J would be exhausted and I was not coming home on public transport with him like that. The zoo now has a multi storey car park, it cost $16 for all day parking. That's a bargain if you ask me as it costs us that just to get a train to the city.
Edmontia (I think)
The entrance has been moved, there is a much bigger shop now, and the zoo has, well to me anyway, more of a safari feel with the decorations. I won't go into a lot of detail except to say if you haven't been for a while you should go. There are even more options on tickets, they know have a family with only one child pass, it saved us some money.
Dotted around the zoo are the dinosaurs. One of them even spits water, which J thought was fantastic. Though to be honest it was probably a toss up on what he liked best, the animals or the dinosaurs. They have a partial Tyrannasaurus Rex that you can sit on as well.
Unfortunately Taronga Zoo only has the dinosaurs there until the 3rd of February. And while there are not many days to go left it is definitely worth the trip to see them.
As expected once we got in the car to come home J passed out and snored all the way home. And let me tell you, after four hours of walking around the zoo, I was so glad we drove.
