Can you sit in the back and keep them awake till we get
home?
The boys were shattered. Having never visited Caversham Wildlife
Park before we had made some fairly school-boy errors. Firstly, the journey was
longer than we had thought (and so arrived lated). Secondly, we had
underestimated the time it took to get between places, including the car park
and finally, we kept ‘popping in’ to additional places as we were trying
to leave. All up, we were waaaaay late for
getting home and knew that if either of the boys fell asleep in the car it was
game over for the well needed nap time (queue: parental nightmare x 2).
The park has so much to see and both of the boys were well
entertained. Mini monkey spent the entire time rushing around between the
exhibits, soaking up information like the little sponge he is. The Giant Baby
had an amazing time being carried around by Grandiddy in the Tula and chatting
non-stop. Whilst it sounded mostly like ‘duck’ repeated 10 million times I’m
sure Giant Baby knew what he was on about.
We saw every Australian animal imaginable, held a wombat,
and stroked kangaroos. There’s plenty more we didn’t see so I’m sure we’ll be
back at some point in the future.
