Lock up your vehicles, hide your valuables

Otherwise you WILL get robbed! not us thank god, but leaving the Zoo today, some unlucky tourists (with babys it looks judging by the carseats) got preyed on by some asswipe with 1/4 of a brain who thinks its fun to take everything off someone who only wants to come to NZ for a wonderful time. Unfortunatly they were not the only ones there was broken car glass every so often as we were looking for a park at the Zoo, so we made sure to take EVERYTHING of value (except the car and car seat!) people who think its OK to take belongings off another person make me SICK they PISS me off to high heaven and god help them if they ever come near me or mine!!!!! I felt so sorry for these poor people, Welcome to Auckland, YEAH RIGHT!

ANYWAY!!! bit of an unfortunate end to such a lovely day, and didnt Auckland BRING IT today!!!! the weather was stunning, the temperature was just perfect and so Darryl and I decided the ZOO it was!!! (scroll down for pics, i posted them first) we spent a good couple of hours just wandering! we didnt see everything, infact i think we only saw half, but it didnt matter, we enjoyed our own company as a family and it was great!

i need to go Maternity clothes shopping (yes, already! it sux!) as you will see by the absolutly STUNNING pink singlet that is HUGE and just makes me look 20 kg more than i am! lol but hey i was cool and comfy, so until i can afford maternity clothing, the pink singlet it is! lol

Kaylee had a great time, she got pretty tired by the end, but loved running around, getting in everyone elses way and growling back at everything that growled at her! lol we get to the Hippo River bit and this little voice pipes up (yes, of course, it was my girl) "pooo tinky!!" meaning of course, god this place stinks like shit! but thats ok, at least she wasnt the kid who kept saying "dad this SUX! we only came here because YOU wanted to, YOU SUCK!" poor Dad! thought he was doing something nice for this little bugger!

The Sea Lions as you can see from the pics below, were stunning as usual, and they had (well i could only see one, didnt know if there are any more!) a fur seal! baking in the sun, moving its head every so often, but no Penguins though for some reason, Kate, (the Zoo expert! lol!) do you know what happened to them?????

the pic of the Ostrich below is one in a series, it was bloody hilarious actually! the little bird was running as fast as it could for ages, with the ostrich straight on its tail, lasted for a couple of minutes when the silly bird finally flew away, but it was really funny to watch, you could almost hear the Ostrich "ill get you!!"

we finished out time at the Zoo with some hot chippies (because thats all they had their that i could eat! god knows i would of loved a Sandwhich!!) and a sit down, was just a lovely day

I was half expecting to bump into Kate on a day like today!!!!! but the good girl had a nice day at home! :)

Haha, nope we were at the zoo today too!! But it was rather hot so we left it till an hour before closing.

There is only one fur seal (he's 2) - and he was injured and rescued - apparently can never go back in the wild but he's happy with the sealions - very cute!
And the penguins, bah - they are hardly ever there - stinky little things!

Cool photos!!
