Fish Feeding!

We went to this place called Aquarscene. At every high tide the fish come in to get fed. It's VERY cool. We couldn't stay too long, because Jaxon was getting cranky. But apparently the longer you stay (about 3 hours) the more kinds of fish you get to see. I have NO idea what kind of fish these were anyway, except that there were salmon cat fish, milk fish and some sting rays as well.

We held Jaxon with his feet in the water and the fish came and rubbed up against him. I don't think he knew it was happening. The bread that they leave for us to feed the fish is old and stale. At one point a lady asked Jaxon if he was feeing the fishies...he wasn't. He was munching on the bread himself! Yuk.

The fish nibble on your finger's if you hold bread out for them. There are also tiny little fish at your feet nibbling on your toes! You can hear me a little bit making "OMG it's touching me" noises at some point during the clip. What a FREAKY feeling!

CROCODILES!

You've all seen the photo's of Jaxon holding (Mum holding, Jaxon patting) the baby crocodile. Well what you don't know is that I got to feed one! Not by hand of course, because I wasn't going to volunteer for THAT...the meat was on the end of a stick and rope!

This is not the clip of the crocodile I fed. The crocodile sitting in the pen next to the one that you see getting fed is the one I did. But Mum, in all of her technological ignorance, thought she was taking photo's and stopped filming right when he started to jump up so we missed it!

That noise you hear as she closes her mouth. The lady doing the tour said it was "caused by one tonne per square inch pressure, slammed shut at the speed of lightening"

Scary stuff, I'll stick to my chihuahua's and kitties!!!

Playing up a storm!

This is obvisouly Jaxon playing Great Grandma's piano. She is the best player I have ever seen, but Jaxon come's a close second!

The barrage begins...

VIDEO's!!

This is at Howard Springs and these are barramundi. They were HUGE. The video I'm putting up doesn't show how big they really are! We couldn't at the time for reason's I don't understand, but this is a swimming place through some parts of the year.
