Green green awesome green, and no I did not scream :)

It turns out that this year green is my accessory colour. Purple is still up there but green is totally making its way up there. And not just any green but Yoshi green (yes he is the N64 character, and he's awesome). Mum just for you he is a lime green colour.

Things I've discovered in the past week:
- Snakes are up there with babies in the something I will never hold unless there is absolutely no way out. Went to a wildlife sanctuary yesterday and they bought out a snake for us to hold. Super super creepy. Carolyn and Jen both held it, but there was no way I was going to, they scare the bejeezes out of me. But I did not scream when the man held it right in front of me.
- I so prefer rollerblading to ice skating.
- Melbourne is far to hot!!!!

Still in Melbourne :)

Nup not home yet, we are still wrecking havoc on the foreign badly accented city that is Melbourne. We are having lots of fun doing lots of shopping and sightseeing.

We went to Weribee Open Zoo yesterday and that was good but kinda a let down too. We went round in the zoo bus to see the animals in the wild-ish bits. They were pretty cool really. Cos it rained part way round we got to see the Rhino's all playful and running around, they apparently like the rain. The Zebra's however don't like the rain and were all sad and droopy headed.
The let down part is that because its an open zoo the animals can go and hide in the back of their pens or round a corner or something. The Cheetahs and Lions were in pens but hiding at the back of them so didn't even really see them.

Went to the Melbourne Zoo as well, that was just like any other zoo really. It was good but the poor animals aren't really free. Got some good photos though, might even post some eventually.

Went to the MCG for a tour the other morning. That was real good to. If there is only one thing that you do in Melbourne I would suggest doing the tour of the MCG and then go to the Melbourne Sports Musuem which is in the MCG. That was awesome fun, there is an interactive section where I learnt:
- I kick better penalty goals with my left foot
- I am actually not to bad at archery
- Suck at running someone out in cricket (so bad that i actually resorted to running up to the stumps just so i would get them out, p.s it was set on super easy)
- I can kick a AFL goal
- Suck at cycling too, me and Carolyn both gave up.

Doing a Phillip Island Penguin Parade tour tomorrow. It should be awesome fun.

Catch you later

And some people think the Panthers suck!!!

I have total proof that they do not!

Got a Panthers Hoodie from their online store and it is seriously awesome. Only an awesome team could ever make a hoodie that awesome so therefore they must be an awesome team :)
Good logic aye :)

Am currently in Melbourne staying with Jennifer and Kev (Carolyn's sister and Husband). Carolyn and I are over here on a shopping/have fun holiday. We went shopping yesterday and today. Good shops but some are just like home and others are way expensive. Got a nice new coat, a cool dress (coat not black and dress not just black). Also have a cool new handbag and some Yoshi stuff. Love the Yoshi stuff, he super cute, and not black either - if you play N64 you know this that last comment was more for mum :)
Going to the MCG tomorrow. Sadly there will be no Mitchell Johnson, but I will cope.
