We Finally Found the Roo's!!!







Today was incredible- we went to a wildlife park and got to meet kangaroo's up close. We also got to hold koalas (not bears). They are marsupials becasue they carry their kin. We have made it to the Gold Coast which sees 300 days of sun a year. Unfortunately there is a cyclone so its pouring out- thus all the raincoats... Still trying to get photos uploaded. Keep your fingers crossed for sun for us!!!

Looks like you girls are having fun! The US of A seems so quite without you crazy fools! Hey you Boston fans, I guess that proves that the Yanks are better!!!
