Wildlife and wild times

(Kanga and roo)

This weekend Mary Kate and I went to several nearby beaches and to Currumbin Wildlife Center.  The beaches included Rainbow Bay, Point Danger, and Snapper Rocks.  They were all right in a row and Snapper Rocks was really cool to watch because it was all surfers surfing right next to sharp rocks.

We stayed the weekend at one of the teacher's homes who let us borrow it while she was away.  We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet time and enjoyed going out and watching Harry Potter.  We took a bus to Coolangatta to go out but we were rejected by the bouncer because Mary Kate had a 'rubber thong' on and glass could hurt her foot....needless to say we went back to Harry.

Sunday we went to the Wildlife center and got to hold a koala (which smelled like a wet rag) and play with kangaroos.  It was really fun to see all of the animals that are native to Australia and to learn about them.  Angela and the kids joined us at the center and fed the kangaroos with us.
