Yesterday, we visited the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. We met many of Australia's native animals. There were these large bats called Flying Foxes. They fly all around our area at dusk and are pretty cool to see. We saw a platypus, a couple of dingos and a whole bunch of koalas. We, (meaning me, Robyn and Kayla!!) got to pet 3 dingos and 2 koalas. I also pet a snake. We took a picture with one of the Koalas. Now that I think about it, we should have gotten a picture with a dingo.
Even though they were badly hit by the flooding, they rebounded nicely. Areas were roped off, but all the animals were accessible. We felt like we got the full experience, even though they suffered. I admired their work ethic.
We had a great time and really enjoyed the experience. This was not the only 'zoo' that we visited that lets you play and touch the animals. I only wish the zoos back home in the US would let you regularly interact with the animals. I would highly recommend the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary to anyone.

Well that's it for now. Speak to you all soon,
