Holidays in the Land of Oz

Happy belated holidays. Sorry I have been incommunicado for the last month or so, but I have been dealing with some depression, etc. Those of you who know me will not be surprised at that news. I wish I could say that I'm past it now, but it looks like it needs to kick me in the butt for a while longer. It's ok - builds character.

Despite the miserable mood, I have still been pretty active - made easier by the presence of three early 20-somethings, two active canines, new kayaks, and a hubby who can't seem to get enough of the water. In fact, after taking Gavin to the airport this morning (we were sad to see him go!), Tim and I went boating on the Lane Cove River.

On Monday, Gavin and I went to the nearby Koala Park. It's a small animal sanctuary where you can see and pet many local animals - koalas (of course), kangaroos (of course), echidnas, wallaroos, emus, etc. As you can see, koalas are almost impossibly cute and sweet creatures.



And then there is the cute roo entertaining me....













... and here's Gavin looking pretty cute as he entertains this roo...
