Today was our free day to do whatever we wanted around the Brisbane area. Jen, Shelby, and me went to the Australia Zoo...aka the home of the Crocodile Hunter. It was about an hour train ride outside of Brisbane. Despite as many zoos we have been to and all the animals we have seen so far in this trip, going to the Australia Zoo was so worth it. We went to the Crocossium (huge stadium at the zoo) and saw the wild animal show and of course there were crocodiles involved. The zoo was much more interactive then I expected, they had koals we could touch and kangaroos we could feed (like at the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary) and they also had animals that they had out of cages and just going all around the zoo with a guide. They even were walking a dingo on a leash. In case you dont know what a dingo is, it looks like a dog but is much less tame and is dangerous to be around because they will attack.
