Happy Hanukah!

Hanukah, and soon Christmas, spent in the summer sun ... kinda different, but we like it!

Happy Holidays to all!

"Kangaroos!! I want to see kangaroos!!" Our princess was adamant that she wanted to see kangaroos, so off we went on a hunt. Our hunt led us to the Healesville Sanctuary, an hour outside of Melbourne, in the beautiful wine country ... good thing too, as we were sure to need a drink after this outing!

We found the Sanctuary, and thankfully, the kangaroos, along with some adorable cuddly koalas. As kangaroos can pack quite a punch with those super strong legs, it was a little surprising that all that separated them from us was a rope ... a short little rope that our little devils could walk under and that we could step over. No deterrent for a bouncing animal I'm sure! Thankfully, all they were interested in was eating and sleeping, so we were able to see the Roos, then move on. All in all, a fun day for all :o)

Our newest family adventure is a 6 month trip to Australia. Hubs is working, so the kiddies and I have tagged along for the ride .. and what a ride it is!!! We are staying in Brighton, a suburb of Melbourne .. a Bayside town that has beaches, parks and shops galore. No chance of being bored here!

Join us on our travels as we explore the area.
