last day in Australia

Yesterday we woke up and went for Mum to have a haircut and I had my fringe cut too then we went to buy me two pairs of new Converse All Stars which were blue and purple and we got two pairs because when I grow out of the blue ones I can go into the purple ones which are bigger. We also bought me some clothes which were a jumpsuit and a dress which are both very nice.

After that we drove to Lone Pine koala sanctuary which was the most amazing experience I have ever had. I cuddled a koala and fed kangaroos. We saw a duck billed platapus, a wombat moving and Tasmanian Devil. 


Mum had a koala hug too but I had a scratch on my back from their claws. It was called Vinny and was so cute. Taylor Swift had cuddled one because we saw on the wall that said which famous people had been around. Also Mariah Carey, Ed Sheeran (the “ranga”) and Nicky Minaj. There were about seven koala enclosures in total and all of the koalas were so cute. We also took selfies with kangaroos.


After Lone Pine we went to a market and got some juice that was very tasty. And we bought Ellie an orchid to say thank you for letting us stay and giving us such a wonderful time. Then because we had forgotten it was Shrove Tuesday on Mum’s birthday we had pancakes which Mum made and they were very yummy.


It is Thursday now and we are getting ready for our first plane ride without Dad and have had a moustache photo before we left Ellie, Stan and Bog. 
Now we are on a plane to Auckland.

  1. Hello Robin - Annabel here, looking forward to seeing you in New York! What amazing animals you have met on your trip. Jack loves animals and I'm sure he will be very excited to hear about your encounters with koalas, kangaroos, platypus, and even a Tasmanian Devil (I thought they were extinct?!!).
