The second day in Melbourne we went to Ballarat Wildlife park. This was a lot of fun because there were kangaroos roaming free everywhere that we could feed and pet. I got to see a lot of baby kangaroos, even one in it’s mom’s pouch, and they were adorable. There were a lot of other animals but my favorites were the giant tortoises, wombats, and koalas. The tortoises were massive and fun to watch as they snacked on grass. The wombats were kind of crazy and tried climbing their cage. The koalas were very active so I got to watch them climbing and snacking a lot. It was very smoky from the fires in Australia today in the areas we’ve been. It’s really sad how many fires there are and it just really puts into perspective the effects of climate change. Today I think all the flights and activities are really catching up with me because I’ve been really tired. I’m hoping I’ll be able to stay awake for the Great Ocean Road drive tomorrow since that should be really pretty.
