15 full days in Australia and I STILL had not seen a kangaroo…koala…or anything that us Americans think of when we hear “Australia.” To validate that I was indeed on the right continent, I hopped on a tram for the first time and traveled north of the CBD. 20 minutes later, I found myself at the Melbourne Zoo – the oldest zoo in Australia. It was there that I saw my first kangaroo, wallaroo, wombat, and koala in person. They were all laziest things I had ever seen! In fact, the most active of the bunch was the koala (yes, the animal that spends nearly its entire life sleeping)!
Week 2 Observations:
Fashion style is very European - for women, leggings with every outfit is very popular!
Water conservation is big
Many restaurants allow BYO wine or beer, and charge a small corkage fee
Sydney is where the great beaches are at, not Melbourne (but there apparently is a beach 15 minutes from the CBD)

The kangaroo on the left kind of looks like cabo.
too cute! I want one of each! I'm sure the kangaroo would give Jasper a run for his money
Who would have thought that you would go all the way to Australia and find the laziest animals on the planet!!! That's too funny, but they're still really cute!
