On the Tree Tops

Hey Friends!  One thing we really wanted to see on our Great Ocean Road Adventure was Koalas in their natural habitat.  He got kind of discouraged when we didn't see any and headed off the beaten path.  Matt pulled the car over and sure enough...one look up and there was a koala eating some lunch in a tree!

She was quite active for day time.  I have only seen them active at night time and even then they were quite sleepy.

It was so fun to sit back and watch the koala do her thing!

After a crazy drive on a windy road, We found the Tree Top Adventure park and got there just in time for the last admission of the day!
We wanted to walk amongst the tree tops!
We didn't realize how much walking we would be doing! 
Up we went!
We climbed these metal bridges to get to the top!
It's not for the faint of heart because you can see straight down to the ground.

We even climbed to the top of that tower you can see in the background!  The tower swayed back and forth as we hung on for dear life! (or so it seemed!)
Here's the view from the top!
Destiny was NOT impressed.
It really was quite the adventure....especially for some one who is a tad afraid of heights.
The girls were happy to be done with the walking.

Daddy with babe.
This picture embodies the whole "theme" of our vacation. The girls would say they were TOO TIRED to walk places, but when asked what they wanted to do?!?!?  They would answer...RUN and PLAY!  I guess it truly is different traveling with children and we can't wait for a little vacation for just me and Matt. :) 

Around home, we are back to our regular routine.  Destiny's school holidays are over and we are busy, busy.  Oliver is working on getting 2 more teeth and Addi is enjoying one of the last warm days before it turns really cold.

Enjoy today!
