Been busy recently so heres a brief summary of what we have been up to: Brisbane - Went on a trip to Steve Irwins Zoo (AKA Australia Zoo). We got there on a minibus owned by what we believe must be Steve Irwins biggest fan/stalker. When we got on the mini-bus our driver gave us a comprehensive talk of Steve Irwins life and then pulled down a flat screen TV from the ceiling and we got to see Steve Irwins biography on DVD (Special Edition too!).
