Amanda bounced over to Draco and asked, "Wanna see?"
"That was nasty Mandy, not good nasty, bad nasty."
"I know but you deserved it, now do you want to see?"
"Okay, hit me."
Amanda turned around and lifted up the back of her top, revealing a smaller but identical dragon to Draco's, just above her low cut jeans.
"What do you think?"
"Very sexy," Draco replied in all honesty.
"How sweet of you," Amanda told him, before giving him a quick kiss on the lips, "now lets go find some weird animals."
After hours of walking through the zoo they finally decided on an animal, which made Draco happy cause it was almost lunchtime. They decided to do their poster about Margatekingston's, which are commonly kept by Australian wizards for their dung that has an extortionary growth component. If you sprinkle a tiny amount of dung around a plant it will have a rapid growth spurt, so you have to be careful not to put too much on. They slightly resemble a small deer, without the antlers and being dark green.
"Now can we eat?" Draco whinged.
"Fine, even though we ate only four hours ago, we'll go find a seat at that restaurant place over there," Amanda told Draco as she pointed at an Australian Foods and Beverages restaurant.
They found themselves a table and started reading the menu; Draco made many suggestions about what foods and drinks he wanted, but Amanda shook her had in disapproval. Eventually they each found what they wanted to order, which turned out to be a kangaroo snags. Neither of them had any idea what a 'snag' was so they asked a passing waiter.
"Excuse me, what exactly is a snag?" Amanda asked politely.
"You must be tourists, snags are simply sausages, but 'round here they are known as snags."
"Okay thank you," Amanda thanked him, "oh wait one more thing, how do you cook your sausages?"
"On the barbie out back," he told them in an Australian accent, which made Amanda of when she was little holidaying in Australia.
"On the what?" Draco asked rather rudely.
"On the barbeque," he responded ignoring the boy's rudeness.
"Thank you," Amanda told him politely as a gesture for him to leave.
Draco was glad they finally agreed on what was eatable, that also wouldn't undo all their hard Quidditch training and ruin either of their physiques, which were rather good after play Quidditch all summer.
The menu was very detailed and specified that kangaroo meat had very little fat (which is actually a true fact).
Their food arrived with their specified drinks, neither of which were fire whiskey much to Draco's disappointment. The meat tasted weird, not bad weird just different weird. Draco had secretly spent the whole morning thinking about was he could secretly drink fire whiskey with the other Slytherin's without his health freak girlfriend finding out. He couldn't just not drink it, or everybody would get suspicious and wonder why the current fire whiskey sculling champion stopped drinking completely. If anybody found out Amanda had told him not, he would be talked about behind his back, as nobody would dare say it to his face, for fear of the consequences.
Eventually the finished and started walking around the zoo again, it took half an hour before Draco stopped whining about not being allowed to get desserts.
"Ohh reptiles lets go see!" Amanda once again dragged Draco off to another attraction.
It was dark inside the reptile house, with red light from the cage being the only light source.
When nobody was watching or listening, Draco out of boredom would start talking to random snakes. Amanda on the other hand who was not a very accomplished telepathist, liked communicating with snakes as they were much easier then other animals because they are not complex, they don't even have legs.
Amanda soon started a telepathic conversation with a brown snake.
'Why are you called a Tiger Snake when you're brown?' Amana thought.
'I'll show you,' the snake told her before it turned into a small tiger about the size of cub, which made Amanda jump back in shock.
'That was pretty cool.' Amanda told the snake which nodded its head in response.
"You know I heard they had a Basilisk here in the seventeenth centaury but they had to kill it because it killed so many people," Malfoy whispered in her ear from behind her.
"And which snake told you that?"
"How do you know that I just didn't know that as a general fact?"
"How would you know anything about a zoo that is half way across the world?"
"The orange and black snake told me," Draco confessed.
"The snakes were lying Draco," Amanda told him.
"How do you know?"
"Because all these cages have glass fronts so," but Draco cut her off before she finished, "everybody would only be petrified!" He sounded very proud of himself.
After going through the whole reptile house Draco suddenly became very bored, "I'm bored," he whined.
"Well why don't you put your invisibility cloak on and go find something to do?"
Draco started rummaging through his bag looking for his invisibility cloak, which turned out not to be there.
"Did you forget something Draco?" Amanda asked, as she knew his cloak wasn't in his bag.
"How did you do it? How did you get the cloak out of my bag?" Draco asked accusingly.
"Actually I knew it wasn't in there because I saw it fall out when we were trying to find the portkey," Amanda pulled two cloaks out of her bag while looking around carefully. She threw one at Draco, "don't put it on because I know something fun we can do, now put it away before someone sees it."
After only a few minutes of walking the reacher a sign which brought a smile on Draco's face, 'Animal World Amusement Park, fun and games for the whole family.'

Now that sounds like fun. I personally love roller coasters. LOL how adorable Draco being proud of himself!
