Weekend in Dubbo/Narromine (6/11?)

Sat’day
Got up bright and early for the zoo! Drove into Dubbo to go and see the Western Plains Zoo This zoo is so huge that you can either rent a bike or trolly cart or drive your own car around! We just drove Nattie’s car and still did a fair bit of walking. Saw the meerkats being fed their brekky! =) We got ice cream at the lion’s station. We made excellent time through the whole zoo and only missed the echidnas and emus. We couldn’t find the maned wolf. 
We had plenty of time before going back to Narromine before dinner so we checked out some of Nattie’s favourite shops in Dubbo, got her eyebrows waxed, went to the cultural centre museum, and tried to find a place that sold native Aboriginal jewellery with no luck. We grabbed a bit of food then went to the Narromine Aviation Museum! It was so neat! They had the history of Narromine aviation and Australia’s war involvement. There was also a replica of the Wright Brothers first aeroplane. By this time Nattie and I were pooped, so we stopped in Nat’s mum’s office at the airfield and said hi and bye (g’day!). Then we went home and watched Mulan 2. Went back to the part of Balto that I missed while Nattie baked for her mum. I finally got people bumps! BJ (Nat’s sister) cooked dinner again. Then I slept through another movie/helped Nattie bake/watched Taxi. Then I watched 2 Guys a Girl and a Pizza Place with BJ because I couldn’t sleep.
