So, A Grown-Up Blogger Walks Into a Zoo...

True story.

Me: "Look, Scribey! What a strange-looking deer!" 

"And it's just crouching down on the grass, munching and munching on - hey, wait, what's with the tail?

Scribey: "Um, those aren't deer, Mei." 

Bird: "Odd human. Wouldn't know a kanga if it didn't look at her straight in the eye."

Me: "Oh, dear." 

And this, my friends, sums up my first experience with a fine mob of Australian marsupials.
