We drove about 40 minutes (more like an hour & 15 min, but that's because we went the wrong way at first, oops!) to the Cohunu Koala Park.
It's a big plot of land that is fenced in and most animals are just roaming around. But first on the agenda, I got to cuddle with a Koala!! It was so cool!
As you can see in the picture above...there were a bunch of koala's behind us...and Jaret loved the fact they were just hangin' around and sleeping like nothing was going on around them.
There was even a little baby koala!
Once we were done with the koalas...we went out into the park to play with the rest of the animals.
But first we had to pass these creepy things...
Then we saw a peacock out for a stroll...with some babies!
Now it was time to play & feed some kangaroos, wallabies & a couple of deer (yeah, we thought it was a little random for the deer)
And yes...we were sold popcorn to feed the animals.
The little guy Jaret is feeding above had the prettiest eyelashes :)
Right by the kangaroos were the ostrichs...thank goodness they were fenced up because they were a tad scary.
These emus were roaming about and also made us a bit nervous...something about birds.
These mini horses were actually not free roaming... it said they were in the "Diet Ranch"...I guess some of the animals indulge in a bit too much popcorn :)
And then we played with the llamas for a bit and called them Tina, thank you "Napoleon Dynamite"
Last we saw the Dingo <<insert "Seinfeld" quote here>>...and he was caged, but he was so pathetic and really cute! He kinda reminded me of my niece-dog, Penny!
We had a great time playing with all the animals (despite the heat)...but it was fun to see some of Australia's animals :)
And I will leave you with one more picture of me with my new koala friend!
