No walk this morning as we were on the early 8.30am ferry......I had the job of taking the car onto the ferry and I now think that I am the cleverest chick on the planet, just wait till you see my parking job...I am so impressed with myself, it's not funny.....I just happened to be the person that had to reverse in and had to watch the guy telling me what to do without looking at my mirrors...talk about take the control away from a control freak....with the reverse parking sensors going off....
I ended up driving all the way to Adelaide it's only 100 klms so not that far and we stopped off at a cafe on the way to have some breakfast....so yum and so quick....well hello mainland!!!
Got into Adelaide and went to the zoo, only one of the Panda's was out when we got there but when we had finished we went back to see if they were both there and they were... they are very hopeful that the little girl panda is pregnant they only mate once a year and missed that chance but they took measures into their own hands...how cute if she does have a cub...they are only here until 2019, unless they negotiate a longer term they will go back with any babies they have....the photo that I have isn't very good will try and get the boys photos from them....
The poor flamingo that is there is on his lonesome, the others have all died...the one that died last year was 83 and they only last about 45 years....the one and only that is left is in his 60's....due to quarantine laws and politics we won't be getting any more....
And the meerkats that are there are turning white (think it said that they were all from the same family), they don't know why so they are keeping an eye on them.....
We walked back from the zoo to the hotel, about 4.5 klms and it was hot, but along the way Dan put us right out the front of a Chatime....well hello green tea with passionfruit and pearls..oh how I have missed you.....I'm now on my second one, it's been a long week with no bubble tea....
Tried to get tickets to the BBL for tomorrow night but can only get single seats...have decided that we will watch it in the room, rather than not being able to sit together....

| I cannot believe that I got that car in there.... |
 |
| Impressed? Oh my stars I am....I hate driving Greg's car at the best of times... |
 |
| I was jammed over on the right hand corner... |
 |
| The cattle were pretty jammed in I suppose it would stop them falling with the motion of the ship... |
 |
| That was my view when I got back in to take the car out... |
 |
| Wind farm... |
 |
| These guys are massive.... |
 |
| Remember these tables anyone? |
 |
| This was a mini library in the main street, take a book but you must replace it...@ Normanton |
 |
| Greg and I shared a omelette, on the laminex table.... |
 |
Does this remind you of hungry hungry hippos....
|
 |
| Their teeth were huge.... |
 |
| Looking cute for a minute, that is until they move.... |
 |
| Galapagos tortoise, one was eating sweet potato and the other one was eating cauliflower. |
 |
| Meerkat rest home... |
 |
| One of the white Meerkats... |
 |
| Fu Ni, this is the girl, the glass is so thick it has a bad reflection on it and they were not allowed outside today.... |
 |
| Wang Wang the boy, he is a bit of a handful the keeper said, very boisterous... |
 |
| Panda selfie.... |
 |
| Well Hello Kitty the cafe.... |
