Bateman's Bay

It was under leaden skies that we left for Bateman's Bay on Monday morning and under leaden skies we returned this afternoon. Unfortunately it pretty much rained most of the time so our "beach" holiday didn't quite turn out how we had hoped. This was about as good as it got!

That photo was taken during one of the brief lighter moments. We took advantage of those by going for walks down to the beach. Mitch did lots of running around during those moments to make up for being stuck inside when it was raining.

The highlight was visiting Mogo Zoo one morning when it wasn't raining too much. Mogo Zoo is about 10 minutes drive south of Bateman's Bay. Mitchy loved seeing all the animals. There were some friendly animals:



And some big cats:



Mitchy took whatever vantage point he could get:

So it was good to get away, but a lot of the time we were stuck inside wishing we could go and play ...

... outside!

And that is the story of our holiday to Bateman's Bay.




Okay ... a couple more animal pictures:
