So on our final full day in Adelaide we were all excited about our trip to Adelaide Zoo and it didn't disappoint. Our friends contacts meant we were allowed special access to the veterinary dept inside the zoo where the children were looked after whilst we watched a seal post mortem. We also managed to get a glimpse of Adelaide's two new pandas, Wang,Wang and Funi which literally had been opened to the public that week and not in a post mortem sense either.
We spent most of the morning and early afternoon taking photos of animals and herding kids before heading once more to the beach to escape the heat and enjoy the sunset, kite surfing and food. Kite sufing to all newbies ( included me) consisted of a surf board and a kite and we watched in awe as a particularly able individual was pulled huge distances into the air perfoming aerial acrobatics before landing deftly on the sea surface once more. I could have watched all day and longed to have a go but knew deep in my heart I would have spent more time combing the bottom of the sea with kite and board perched on my head, wondering where the sky had gone.
