First timer

28 July 2006

As the newest member to the Australia Zoo croc team I am both eager and rather excited about the 2006 Lakefield croc trip. Preparing for the trip has been an adventure on its own, traipsing in and out of camping stores buying all the toys boys dream of… knives, tents, the list could go on and on. Having half the team gone already with a convoy of cars and supplies to last us for five weeks has made it interesting in the croc department with only a skeleton crew to run the show. I am looking forward to the many challenges I am sure to face, but that’s why I am here… for the adventure and the crocs! I will be sure to let you know how it all goes being a first timer. I’m not sure what the first aid course is for; I don’t plan to need it! Until then... crocs rule!
