It was a sunny morning and the animals were all awake and active as seven families joined us to take in the sights at the Canberra National Zoo & Aquarium.

What was particularly special was that some of the families had joined us at other activities prior to COVID-19 restrictions, including ten-pin bowling and the aqua park, so they were able to reconnect and get to know each other better.

The families enjoyed a picnic lunch in the sunshine between the sunbaking cheetah and the wandering rhino, giving everyone a good chance to catch up properly.

What can we say? It’s always a good day at the zoo!
