Little update

To contact us Click HERE
Justin and I are finishing our time here in Oz and are off to New Zealand tonight. Some Australia highlights:

- snorkeling at the Great Barrier Reef, at which I totally saw a shark
- holding a koala and feeding a wallaby at the zoo in Kuranda, at which we also learned that wombats have square poop,
- visiting two bat sanctuaries, taking time at the second to play fetch and pet the owner's adorable dogs,
- befriending the German proprietess if an Aboriginal art store, from which we purchased a drawing of Jesus Birds,
- watching two Ayers Rock sunrises, two Ayers Rock sunsets, and one Ayers Rock stargazing session, at which we asked so many dorky questions that we were invited to be test guests on a new star tour the next night,
- taking a bushtucker tour, at which we consumed a plant which tastes kike salted kale chips,
- viewing the Sydney Harbor Bridge, which we did not climb, and the Sydney Opera House, which we diid not enter
- seeing the Pixar movie Brave after purchasing tickets online and presenting a bar code on my phone (never thought that would work)
- visiting too many museums, including the National Maritime Museum, Museum of Sydney, Cairns Historical Society museum, Rocks Museum, and airport historical galleries,
- discovering that crocodile is kind of chewy, emu is like chicken crossed with venison, and kangaroo is freaking delicious,
- drinking excessive amounts of Flat Whites, Austalian coffee with hot milk but not foamy like a latte, sticking to decaf
- coming in third at the hostel's trivia night, behind teams of at least 5 people (what country did the black swan come from? What building grows six inches in summer? WHAT COLOR IS A GRASSHOPPER'S BLOOD??)
- visiting my sister's baby blog 46 times

And a lot more! Wish us safe travels and great skiing in New Zealand, and we will see a lot of you soon!
