aussie photos

Just a selection - more to come!
Savannah petting a wallaby at the Australia zoo, home of Steve Irwin "Croc Hunter."


I have to laugh when I look at this photo because Jenny said something like "Isn't that just like a typical Aussie bloke - just put a beer in between his hands! The attitude!" LOL. These are red kangaroos at the Australia zoo.

A "joey" poking out of its mom's pouch! This was at Something Wild Wildlife Park in Tasmania.

Sam and Savannah out on the marine eco-cruise at Tangalooma on Moreton Island/Moreton bay. This was absolutely a most amazing day!! The water was clear blue and gorgeous and we saw a huge herd of dugong (like manatees), dolphins playing in the boat's bow, eagle rays, sea turtles, jellyfish - it was sooooo cool. That was our last day in Australia!

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree, merry merry king of the bush is he... laugh kookaburra laugh kookaburra, gay your life must be! This was outside of my friend Kelli's house - they sound like a bunch of howling jabbering monkeys! I love them!
