MOGO ZOO

Wednesday 11th April

A big day today as we visit MOGO Zoo and the little township of Mogo itself. The girls were excited to be visiting the zoo and also to feed the giraffes if possible. We headed north from our Home base in Moruya about 16 kms to the funky main area of Mogo. Lots of little craft shops and antique wares of all sorts. We quickly found the zoo and headed in. Of course a picture with the Giraffe image to check our height and then in we go.

 Nice little zoo with some of Australias tiniest monkeys on view. Alot of these images are from behind glass so excuse the wishy washy look. some also through wire fencing. 

Crazy people

 
  We missed the feeding by 3 minutes so no go on the feeding of giraffes but the deer got the girls attention when we offered some pellets to them.. Until they stole the bag from Mias hands and ran off with it and the rest of her pellet feed. This is not a huge zoo but very cute and close up to all the animals which is great.

She loved patting the animals

 They at least looked happier than city zoos because they had a good area to run in and weren't too caged up in a box type scenario. Alovely day visit for the family.

Mia and Lily had their first Pony ride. Mia's face says it all. Lily on the other hand wasn't too confident. Daddy had to go with her for support.

The ponies name was 'Flick'.

Next we head to the town centre for a lookaround and some Ice Cream. Funky little shops and very cheap prices on all the furniture items.. Me and Heather will visit again to stock up when we build our new home next year. ( if we have any money left) :)

Back to the van for dinner and to plan the next few days travel. Although we have decided to stay on another night to go and see the very close Bodalla and Tilba Tilba. We want to taste some cheese from the cheese factory and also have been told that Tilba Tilba is something not to be missed. After Thursday we intend on our southern journey to a new state VICTORIA.
