Colourful


Taken at Roma Street Parkland playground. While the kids were playing I took this picture. The colour are so vibrant and I am practising my photography skills here. Trying to understand about shutter speed, aperture and exposure and experimenting on it.

Australia Zoo - Home of The Crocodile Hunter




The four of us (me, hubby, Intan and Azib) went to Australia Zoo on the 3rd of July. Wah..... everybody was excited especially me and hubby salnya selalu meliat dari tv saja about crocodile hunter. We know that Steve Irwin died last year due to a fatal accident (it happened when I was having my mid-semester exam in QUT), anyway, the memories of his works and tv programmes always be in our heart. Me and hubby really admired him. Now, I admired the most is Bindi, Steve Irwin eldest daughter, she will be 9 years old by 24th July... so its going to be a big birthday party for her on that day. Every kids can enter the zoo for free. She is just like her father. Samalah tabiatnya, suka binatang.


Okay, yestearday I woke up at 5 am and preparing everythings for the kids. Then at 7 am we went to the 333 busway in QUT. Then at 7.40 we arrived at Roma Train Station and by 8 am we started our journey by Nambour Express Train to Beerwah. Mula-mula tu a few stops at certain train station then after about 20 minutes our train terus menuju ke Beerwah. Our journey took about 90 minutes by train. During the journey we saw a few beautiful places... especially the Glass Mountain 'The Ape'. Kalau ada rezeki, will go there.... At 9.30 we arrived at Beerwah then disana ada courtesy bus dari zoo menjemput. So, about 5 minutes sampai ke zoo. I paid the tickets... for me Aud$38 (for student), hubby Aud$49 (for adult) and the kids Aud$29 each. The place is really awesome and very big too. We feed the elephants, watching snakes, birds and crocodile shows in Crocoseum. Then by 4 pm baru kami keluar dari zoo. Bought a few soveniors for us and a lot of pictures too.


Our journey going home... at 4.30pm courtesy bus from zoo send us back to Beerwah Station, unfortunately no trains passing by till 6.23pm. So have to wait for the Caboolture bus till 5.10pm. Our journey to Caboolture Stations tooks about 30 minutes. When we arrived there, we have to wait in the train for 20 minutes and by 6.02 pm our journey back to Brisbane started. We stop at every stations which is about 20 train stations all together on our way (sigh!). Arrived in Roma Station at 7 pm. Then have to get the 333 bus to go back to Kelvin Grove. What a journey ehhhh.... CRIKEY!


Here are some pictures taken in Australian Zoo.... and more pics will be coming. Enjoy!
