Do you know, internet wifi in the Melbourne airport arrival hall is free whereas in departure hall it's charged by hour? Now you know.
"Crikey, that alligator is a beau!"
We all heard that line before. The legendary Steve Irwin's most famous overused phrase.
You cannot go to Brisbane without visiting his most impressive legacy ever left behind or built, the Australia Zoo.
Kif and I took a bus and headed straight into the late millionaire crocodile hunter's paradise.
You can see that we're pretty excited.
Everything in the zoo reminded so much of Steve Irwin, even the uniform for all zoo keepers and bus drivers are in the really funky monochrome shirts and khakis.
Of course, somethings kinda just tell it straight to your face how they want to be remembered.
Australia Zoo is a very impressive project that spread over 70 acres of land hosting a rich collection of animals.
I heard that in the next 5 years they're going to expand up another 500 acres (o.O) of land for a safari and more large animals.
Some of these animals are kept here because of their unfit condition to return to the wild.
Like this Kookaburra that is unable to fly due to a car accident injury.
I personally thought we need more zoos like this in the world.
*It's actually spelt as born, too lazy to change now. wtf*
Btw, do you how to tell the difference between crocodiles and alligators? Last I heard alligators have longer mouths, but I still can't quite tell the difference in this photo.
Apparently Daisy's an alligator.
And what is visiting Australia without touching a Koala or two. :D
They're so cute!
After that we caught some lunch at the food court, knowing that every single Australia meal we came across were stupendously huge, we shared a meal.
See how big that burger is?!
Half each.
We saw a live interview for an audition for a presenter post in the zoo.
Apparently this girl was trying to make the birds in the cage to fly to four random people from the audience. After all the bird calling test and tricks and getting the participants ready, she opened the cage...
And the birds flew away.
She didn't get the job. o.O
They proceeded to do some crocodile feeding stunts which I thought was pretty cool.
Though we all know we've seen worse in Thailand and Malaysia where people has performed crazy dangerous stunts on crocs and have themselves killed.
Let's move on to something cuter.
Piglets!
When Steve Irwin passed away, people flooded in to pay their respect to the legend of the Australians.
A corner of the corner were reserved for all the words ever left for Steve from around the world.
From fans to old-time friends.
These words were written in different languages as well.
And the list goes on.
Going through this section was just plainly heart-warming. It made me miss the annoying Crikey so much more.
I know it's kinda late.
But Steve,
We will all miss you.
