Imax & Wildlife World

Jacob is obsessed with dinosaurs at the moment. They say all little boys go through dinosaur-period in life. He just looooves them! Jurassic Park is one of his favourite movies. Scary!

Last weekend we took him to Imax 3D Cinema to see a dinosaur movie. You should have seen how exited he was! At first he got a bit frightened and climbed up on my lap but then after a little while, he was reaching out trying to touch images with his hand. It was sooo funny! It's amazing how real it looks.
IMAX is the largest and most exciting film format in the world. With crystal clear images, ten times larger than traditional cinema format, the IMAX draws you in with pictures so real you want to touch them, so powerful you can feel them.The IMAX experience takes an image rich in clarity and definition, throws it onto the world's biggest screen and wraps the viewer in digital surround sound. Truly breathtaking experience.
After watching dinosaur movie, we headed to Wildlife World in Darling Harbour. That's another cool place to take your kids. http://www.sydneywildlifeworld.com.au/?sydney=/home
It's like a little wild oasis in the middle of high risers and noisy traffic of the city. They have reptiles, beautiful birds, cuddly koalas, wallabies, colourful butterflies and other creepy crawlies. They have the biggest cockroaches in the world and If you're keen enough, they even let you touch it. I was keen enough! :-)
Jacob loved touching the snake. No fear at all! Next Crocodile Hunter in the making.Just as we were leaving Wildlife World, big dark storm clouds started to roll over. We made it across the bridge just in time before thunder storm. Had lunch in the noodle bar and topped it all off with a lovely ice-cream. Action and excitement packed day!!! :)
