    south coast beach holiday, what about dubbo zoo? the zoofari is a great experience and the kids love it.

    I'll be back later when I can think of more.

    Thank-you for the awesome suggestions. I was beginning to freak out but thanks to the collective wisdom of BB I'm pretty sure we can pull together a wonderful birthday trip without blowing the budget.

    Mogo zoo's supposed to be good, as is mollymook, eden etc on the south coast.
    Kangaroo valley is stunning

    Not sure of distance/price but a houseboat on the murray might be nice. Or a trip to echuca with a trip on a paddlesteamer.

    Or a farmstay in the middle of whoop whoop

    When do you want to travel? There may be things on lastminute etc.

    We have a night at the Zoo locked and loaded. Zoos aren't really my cup of tea but the boys have been begging to go for ages and when I gave them the choice of steam train or zoo they chose the zoo. We're staying the zoofari lodge so they get a night tour and an early morning tour as well as normal entry and the meals are provided so all I have to do is stop them from being eaten by a lion.
    For $5 extra you can feed a giraffe - I'm so doing that. I love giraffes.

    I've book marked this thread for future birthdays.

    Onyx, I used to work at the zoo, and have done the zoofari thing. It is absolutely fantastic! Hence why I suggested it.
    From exxperience get there early and make sure you get checked in fairly well on time. The tours are fun and deifantely kid friendly

    Enjoy!
