Finding Nemo & Friends.

I love aquariums. I have done since I was four years old, when my reception class was taken on our very first school trip to one. I don't remember much, just being fascinated by the stingrays and seahorses. Fifteen years on (Fifteen? Really? That is terrifying), and not much has changed. I am still just as fascinated. Though I much prefer seeing sharks, turtles and all other animals in the wild, it was still great to see the variety of colours and wildlife up close. I even got to hold starfish! And being the Disney fanatic that I am, I got a bit too excited when I saw 'Nemo' and 'Dory'... 

Taking Selfies with Kangaroos and Koalas!

Well, that's another few things ticked off of my Bucket List; talking selfies with kangaroos & koalas and holding a snake! My day out at Caversham Wildlife Park was probably my favourite day so far in Australia, and potentially even one of the best days of my life. The fact that I just sat there for twenty minutes with a kangaroo, managing to get so close that I accidentally got poked in the eye with its ear. It even struck a few poses! My day at Caversham also proved to me that I open my mouth far too much, not just from talking so much, but in photos. Given that my brother practically owns a zoo (think multiple snakes, scorpions, tarantulas, geckos, etc.), I figured it was only right that I got my hand on some reptiles. Though everyone else was terrified to even go near the snake, I asked to hold it on my own, but unfortunately wasn't allowed. They clearly thought I was going to run off with it/completely bottle it, drop the snake and run screaming from the room... Here are some photos (I won't lie, they're mostly selfies) I took on the day...
