one had to wake one's partner to get out of bed and back in again, as one had to climb... (more)Carole-Anne Fooks

Having a very close encounter with a baby koala, rescued from the main road by our driver/guide Jeremy. Although his mum was up a tree nearby, after sitting at the bottom and thinking about it, he decided to head back towards the road, so
