Today we set out on an adventure to Healesville Sanctuary, which is a bit of a trek from Melbourne proper. Auntie Clare came along for the ride though, and that made it even more special and fun.
Highlights from the trip include "Spirits of the Sky" where we were oh so very close to some beautiful birds of prey. We also got up close and personal with some more Roos, saw the Koalas at feeding time, Echidnas at feeding time, finally saw a platypus (the one in Brisbane had not been at home)and kept the Ibises at bay while eating the delicious picnic lunch Johanne packed for us. We also learned all about the Zoo's "Wipe for Wildlife" campaign. Truly Australian.
After a long and fun filled day at the Zoo, we stopped by a bakery in the town of Healesville and had skinny flat whites and a delightful assortment of Australian baked goods. We closed the day out meeting up with M and P and having delicious homemade pizza at their friends' house. Here's a shot of Wes and Phil lounging on the couch pre-dinner.
