Part 1: Sydney and
Part 2: Gold CoastHere's the final part to my Australia trip :) (I didn't want to bombard all of you with so many images & text so I've split it up in three posts.)
I possibly couldn't visit Australia and NOT see the wildlife so we visited the Currumbin sanctuary and an aquarium [Underwater World] during our time there.
Wombats and crocodiles..
...and kangaroos!
Other animals we saw were eels, pelicans, stork, echidnas, dingos, Tasmanian devils, parrots, iguanas, ducks, emu, eagles, turkey, etc.
We also saw a few shows in between like the Didgeridoo show (which is basically an Aboriginal instrument), a snake show, free flight bird show, and Aboriginal dancing.
At Underwater world, we saw a bunch of colorful fish and we even watched a seal show.
My favorite were the Asian sea otters - sooo adorable!
We also saw stingray, sharks, turtles, lobster, crab, etc.
Additionally, we went to a show called the Outback Spectacular; it was basically a performance + dinner. Horses did tons of tricks, featuring some cows, dogs, pigs, and of course cowboys & cowgirls. It was an enjoyable show - the music was great, but the steak they served was so hard to cut through. Everyone in the audience had a hard time sawing through it lol.
Overall, I had an amazing time in Australia. Everyone is refreshingly super sweet and friendly, and the weather was perfect. Of course, I did include some shopping and eating out during my trip. I bought mostly basics - cardigans, summer dresses, a lace top, and a few pairs of earrings. We ate out at buffets, cafes, and small restaurants - definitely had fish and chips! By the way, they have this thing called chicken salt which they put on fries to give it more flavor, and it's delicious! Too bad it's not done here in America.
You might remember my post about Zoo Uniform, which I've posted about last year. To refresh your memory, they produce super cute t-shirts (for both men & women) & panties (for women) with adorable zoo animals. I still have their black panda t-shirt, and the quality of their cotton is just amazing. It feels so much more luxurious. I've had it for about a year and it still looks & feels like I've just bought it.
