Now, would you believe that I've been in Australia for EIGHT WEEKS, and the only kangaroo I've seen was in the form of roadkill?! I really thought I would have seen so many by now that they wouldn't even interest me anymore... not the case. In order to rectify this situation, two of my friends from work took me Kangaroo Hunting! We were determined to find me a kangaroo...
The trip started off with a stop off at the corner store for Fanta slushies and candies, it really was a necessary part of the trip :)
We then headed off to Pinaroo, which is a memorial park (aka a cemetary). There aren't any gravestones or anything, only plaques in the ground and it has plenty of kangaroos just grazing.
The one in the front right has a joey!
The one on the right has a joey in its pouch too!
This one is for Bec, the kanga just lazing around like a human!
There was also a kangaroo fight! Two ones of similar size started going at it, they lean back on their tails and hit each other with their back legs since their front legs/arms are quite short.
A bigger kangaroo came to try and join in the fight but the two smaller ones didn't want anything to do with him! Here he is standing tall (on the right).
Finally, one day past my halfway point did I get to see some kangaroos. Hopefully, these aren't the only ones I will see in my time here!
LOVE KRISTY
