I met some folks from Brisbane when I was on vacation in New Zealand and asked if they had ever been to his zoo. I said I thought he was a pretty good ambassador for Austrailian wildlife. Their reaction was that he was, but they thought he was a little too hyper-enthusiastic, even for an Aussie.
We heard the news just as we were parking the car at the aquarium. I don’t know if we explained what happened to our kids before we went inside.
It made for some awkward moments at the touch pool. You could tell who had heard the news versus those who hadn’t. The jittery staff obviously had heard the news.
