| Wine tour in the Hunter Valley on our last full day |
| Beware of American tour guides that swear they are "certified" boomerang instructors...especially when they are from Jackson Hole, Wyoming. |

| Australia Zoo...funky turtles among other things! |
| We hit Australia Zoo on April 24th on our way to Brisbane. The Croc hunter started a pretty neat little zoo.. Crikey! |

| Whitsundays by paddle |
| We hit Airlie Beach on April 14th (we think) to get ready. Again, we were expecting the worst...the rain was pretty bad and the wind was cranking. Not the best recipe for a sea kayaking trip across the Coral Sea. |

| Koalas, wallabies & roos - oh my! |
| And the dream became reality! Jeri got to squeeze (gently) Banjo (the 2 year old koala) at Billabong Sanctuary. I got to hold Nugget, the 40 kilo Wambat. |

| Trip to Australia |
| We are off to chase Kangaroos & Koalas. There is still some last minute packing, but we found some time to create a small post. |
