Sydney

IMG_0357When we went to the zoo in Sydney, we took the ferry and then took the tram up the mountain and walked down through the zoo.  We saw koalas and got to go in their cage and pet them.  We also saw elephants, monkeys, wombats and giraffes.  My favorite were the koalas and wombats.

IMG_0094When we went to the aquarium, we took the ferry.  We saw a huge crab and lots of sharks.  We also saw a huge crocodile and a platypus.  My favorite was the platypus.  i bought a little stuffed wombat animal at the aquarium.  He is really really cute.

We went to the Blue Mountains.  We saw kangaroos in the wild and got really close to them.  Then, we went to a gazebo and fed Crimson Rosellas from our hand.  It was really fun.  We saw a little “grand canyon.”  It was amazing.

When we went to the Australian Museum, we saw skeletons and rocks.  We saw an elephant’s skeleton (see picture).  It was huge.  And next we saw rocks.  We saw lots of cool gems and minerals.  My favorites were the opals.  It was really fun.

I am excited for school.  In school I want to go to other countries and see what schools are like there. I also think it will be fun to learn math, mapping and computer with my parents.  That is why I think school will be fun. 

I also want to learn about sports.   I want to see what new sports are like.  I want to ride camels and elephants. 

I want to try new foods in places.  Some of them will probably be really disgusting.  Some of them will be good.  I wonder if I’ll get to try new candy.

I hope I get to go to animal museums.  There will probably be some really boring museums, but there will be some really interesting ones, too.  I want to go to a horse museum.

We are going to do a LOT of traveling this year.  We are going to go in a three-night train from Singapore to Thailand.  We are also going to go on an overnight plane to Australia.  We are going to go onto a really cool boat to Antarctica. 

It will be fun to see all the animals in the Amazon and in Antarctica.  I really want to see a penguin that I can pet.  I also really want to see a wild horse and lions.

Hello world!
