Gold Coast - Day 6: 27th Apr

We had planned day 6 to the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary (Zoo park). The entrance fees cost us AUD 114 (approx S$150) for 2 adults and 1 child (Ethan gets in free).Ethan vomited during the bus ride all of a sudden and we had to buy a new t-shirt and pants to make him clean.

one of the rare couple pic we had nowadays


At the park, we decided to take the tram ride for a round trip to familarise ourselves with the surroundings before spending time at each section.

This tram ride is rather fun to sit on - feels like riding a real mini train in London


We saw this wild island and decided to make a stop here - it turned out to be a huge playground and picnic area for the visitors





they had fun playing flying fox



The chameleons were roaming around freely in the park, and there were ample


We watched the totally wild and snakes alive show before lunch and the boys had the courage to take a picture with the snake without the father's presence. I bet they didn't know that the snake is so damn scary to begin with



One of the show stars - Golden Brushtail Possum


After lunch, we went to the Kangaroo feeding sessions and the boys were so excited seeing so many of them roaming freely around. Ethan was full of delight and joy whenever the Kangaroo eats the food from his hands









Emu running around too


Scary and deadly crocodiles




Before we left the park, it was Lorikeet feeding which is held at the entrance. I am not sure if it's the bright color that PaPa was wearing on that day which attracted quite a number of birds to land on him. So we managed to get a few shots of them. I had one landed on my shoulder while I was taking the picture and the feeling was horrid! cos you don't know when they will start passing shit onto you!




Superhoney is just opposite Currumbin Wildlife - where we spent alot of $ on buying honey back home for our family. A 250g Manuka Honey cost AUD 31.45 and 500g Manuka honey costs AUD58.80. This honey is suppose to build antibodies to fight against flu bug.


At the bus-stop on our way home, Ethan looked all right throughout the whole day but he vomited again at night in the hotel room
