What do the Zoo and Chocolate have in common?

We all had a quiet week at work so we were looking forward to an eventful weekend. Unfortunately, things didn’t go exactly as planned but even with the setbacks everything ended up working itself out.

Since we generally don’t work Fridays we decided to go to the zoo hoping it wouldn’t be too crowded. We took a ferry out to the zoo early Friday afternoon and were determined to see every animal in the zoo.

There was an Australian walkabout in the zoo where kangaroos, wallabies, and emus were allowed to roam freely. One kangaroo even hopped its way right in between a family of five that was getting ready to take a picture.

The Taronga Zoo is very pretty; the best thing about it is the view of the city from almost every part of the zoo.

CHOCOLATE…

Sagar found this famous desert restaurant called Max Brenner’s. I had never heard of the place but I figured you can never go wrong with a place that specializes in chocolate! We spent our Saturday walking around the Harbor and perusing the small markets. Max Brenner’s was our last stop and it was a great way to end the day!

So what do the zoo and chocolate have in common? They make for a great weekend!

Hooroo!!
