Library Cards, and Tigers, and Kangaroos! Oh My!




Today was a day of memberships. After mailing a few postcards to our good friends Jack and Andrew and buying a loaf of fresh bread and a brownie at Brumby's Bakery, we had an excellent play with cappuccinos and long blacks in a park on Rathdowne. We then walked across the street to the Carlton Public Library to get our library cards. We signed out a few excellent graphic novels and then walked home for a quick pit stop before heading off to the Zoo! We are quickly realizing what an amazing location we are in as it only takes us 15 minutes to walk to the zoo! And this zoo is incredible! It is all very close - there are no zoomobiles that you need to take for miles - and many of the animals are not caged but simply wandering behind walls and moats. We loved it so much we bought an annual membership and hope to be back many times in the next year. Alex even got to pet a kangaroo!!
