You might believe it or not, but the Cliché that Downunder is full of wildlife is actually true. And this even on the populated East Coast south of Sydney. Thanks to the successful Aussie travel marketing and a dozen Australian animal children books, that we borrowed from our friends in Bali, we were well prepared. On our […]
