Beautiful day in Canberra today - after the frost cleared! OMG it is soooo cold here!! But, the sun was shining so can't complain too much. Went to have a look at the tower on top of Black Mountain this morning and then to the National Museum. It was really good - the kids got to design a spaceship and then watch a 3D movie showing their inventions. We watched a movie in a revolving theatre and saw so much Australian history. The kids really enjoyed it and hopefully learned a bit as well. (Saw a picture of parliament house there and said to Josh - 'that's where we went yesterday. Do you remember what that's called?' 'The penthouse' he says. LOL! Oh well...)

After lunch Ian dropped me off at the National Zoo and Aquarium for a Zooventure tour which was sooooo awesome. I got to walk around with the zookeeper for a couple of hours and go behind the scenes and feed some of the animals. Having a humungous brown bear eat out of my hand is something I will never forget.
I think I walked around for 2 hours with my mouth wide open. I could have done without having the boa constrictor wrapped around me,
but getting to feed the big cats (a tiger, white lion and cougar) was the ultimate experience.
Feeding the giraffe was cool too. I loved it!!
