Nicole & Joel Come in by Twosies, Twosies

Nicole Richie (skull scark alert!) and beau Joel Madden (Good Charlotte) take in the natural wonders of the world in Sydney on Monday during a quick visit to Taronga Park Zoo, which houses 340 species and over 2600 individual animals.

The cozy couple had an entourage of security as they walked along the shores of Sydney Harbour. Camera shy Nicole hid behind Joel‘s shoulder, shielding herself from fans and photographers.
