This morning I went to the Kiwi park and I've now seen a total of four Kiwis. Jon will be interested to know I've now seen tuataras. An couple of interesting facts for you - Kiwis are from the same family as Emus and Cassowarys. Kiwis are also the closest birds to mammals as they have whiskers on their faces, their feathers are more like hair and they have bone marrow. After the Kiwi house I went up in the Gondola which is in fact a cable car that goes up the hill behind town. I got a few good photos from the outdoor viewing deck and saw some people parascending from the top of the hill. Later on I took another walk round the gardens along the lakeshore.
