Brrrrr!
We’re all going to the zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow, zoo tomorrow…
Yep, I’m off to Melbourne zoo tomorrow - I’m helping out with the prep excursion. Keeping a bunch of exuberant 6 year olds in line would be, um, ‘fun’ at the best of times, but check this out:
Forecast for Monday
Rain in the morning, then showers with local hail to follow. Fresh to strong
southwesterly wind developing in the morning.Precis: Showers. Windy.
City: Min 8 Max 12
Awesome.
Monday edit: Phew! Zoo trip cancelled, to be rescheduled soon. There were a lot of sad little faces, and I wouldn’t like to be the teachers keeping them inside all day!
Edit two: The cancellation, btw, pretty much guarantees that the weather will be okay after all! That Murphy bloke knew what he was on about

Sound rather like the day that DS#1 had an excursion on Puffing Billy except that that day was at the end of November and the weather is not meant to be like that then.
I hope you all have a wonderful day despite the weather conditions.

Well, with that forecast, I’m glad that they ended up canceling the excursion. After all, I don’t think the kids would have nearly as much fun in that kind of weather!

I’m pretty bad at school excursions at the best of times let alone in the middle of winter!

:D It was wet and wild on the way to the airport Monday. Even if the rain stopped I wouldn’t want to be out in the cold with a bunch of 6 year olds.
