Ok...so this is cheesy...But I have loved Koalas my whole life!!
|
Bev, Karen and I took the jungle walkways. Do you love our green stickers..
TOURISTS !
 |
| We took a skyrail up to Kuranda in the rainforest~ and
then a historic railway thru the mountains for a couple of hours. We
were able to visit
with the Koalas and Kangaroos, Wombats and Wallabys! They were in a
zoo....but I thought it was all really cool anyway. The skyrail took us over the Barron River, which during the rainy season is overflowing! |
Ok! another cheezy shot! But he was very cool also. Apparently, Kangaroos are everywhere here in Australia, like the deer at home. Therefore, they eat them, sell their skins and make all kinds of handmade goods like slippers, wallets, purses, hats from every part of their bodies. I mean... every part! I was told" waste not, want not" Hee, hee...more pics later~no worries!
Ah!!! You are TOUCHING A KOALA!!! That is so cool!! And a kangaroo! You don't even look scared! Those guys are dangerous you know! Well in movies anyway ;) Yours looks like a pet. Can you bring one home please??
ReplyDeleteSomeone told me that they did not want to go to Australia because there are "animals that kill there". I wonder if they were talking about Koala bears??? :-) Be careful!! THEY HAVE ANIMALS THAT KILL THERE!!! :-)
ReplyDeletewooohooo mom!! It looks like so much fun!! I remember you always having a thing for koala bears...I'm so glad you got to hold one!!
ReplyDeleteAnne,
ReplyDeleteYou look so happy! I am so happy for you! And cheesy not..I would be right there with you holding the koala bear! What a great experience! Praying that the next part of your ministry is just as much as a blessing!
Miss you!
Hi, Anne! I have really enjoyed reading your blog. What an adventure! You are one courageous woman and an inspiration to many by stepping out in faith and trusting God with this opportunity. Your pictures are amazing!

Thanks so much for your post..and for praying! Its been a fun vacation...but meeting so many missionary families and singles from PNG is really amazing. Some from Wycliffe and some from New Tribes...so many with small children on the field! they have inspired me as well! God is Good!
