Cuddling Koalas!

Today we went to the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary! It was about a twenty minute bus ride, which wasn't bad. We got a semester pass for $30 (a day pass is usually $40 so that's an awesome deal). So I'm sure I'll be going back lots. I got to hold a Koala bear! It was so soft and sleepy. There was also a kangaroo exhibit where we could pet kangaroos, so I got to check a few things off my bucket list. We went to a bird show that was absolutely spectacular. They had the birds flying free and responding to cues. I had to duck a couple times to avoid getting hit by the birds flying over my head. We also saw a huge crocodile that is one of the largest in captivity! We went during feeding time, but he didn't eat because it's still too cold. There's still lots to explore there and I'm sure I'll be back since I have that pass! There's even a rope course I didn't get to check out yet!
This is how they like to sleep!!!
