Hi everybody!
I'm finally in . . . Australia! We're 15 miles away
from Brisbane. We're sailing there with
our friends Connect 4. Recently we went to the Australia Zoo and we cuddled
koalas, fed kangaroos, and held crocodiles.
We spent an entire day there. It
was so amazing to see all the hundreds of animals so healthy and happy. At the
kangaroo park you didn't have to line up and be shown the exact way to feed the
kangaroos, they roamed free all over the park and you could find one kangaroo
that you liked and feed him for awhile
and then move on to another one. The kangaroos would stand up and curl their
paws around your hand that held the food and look all around them with their
intelligent little eyes. They looked like little people when they stood up.
One
of the things I learned there was that all animals are individuals and they all
have feelings. I've been sailing for two years and I saw so many amazing
animals, sea turtles, whale sharks, manta rays . . . But their homes are
disappearing. People pollute so much and if we don't stop and try to save these
animals, they'll disappear.
