Giraffes!

The work this week has been pretty brutal mainly because of the unpredictable weather out here. Its been raining one day then hot and humid and today was even a mix of both. Despite the rain in the afternoon we still managed to make it to the Hamilton Zoo for a look around. We were definitely in the right place at the right time because it was feeding time for the giraffes! One of the zookeepers took us up to a platform and gave us a handfull of carrots to feed to them. They are absolutely massive animals but really gentle at the same time. It made my day despite the bad weather!And with only a half day of work left I can't wait to finish and then start the adventure part of the tour! On Sunday we'll be heading to Waitomo to see glow worms and to go blackwater rafting!

    Yay for all the pics! Awesome shots! It sounds like you're really enjoying your time so far! Soak in every moment of it! I've liked peeking at your blog every few days . . . though, it makes me miss my travelling days!
