Taronga Zoo





Taronga Zoo is on a beautiful site overlooking Sydney Harbour, a 15 minute ferry ride away. An interesting day out, the animals are mostly part of conservation breeding programmes. The habitat areas are large & the talks & shows infomative. We loved the gorillas in particular.






































































After a ride on the City monorail, not as excitng as we'd anticipated as the views were limited to the middle of buildings & partly screened windows on the monorail itself, our evening walk took us back to Darling Harbour & Cockle Bay. The place was buzzing, bars & restaurants busy.  Lots of street entertainment - we were amused by "Beat the Street"  a great combo of comedy, street & break dancing. Then to our surprise MORE fireworks!
