You are 100% correct. They were in Queensland. They were in a Carnival cruise. They said when they arrived in New Zealand it was much more what they were used to. It wasn’t a bad experience. They were just not used to how blunt things are.
They wanted to see the koalas, and the kangaroos. They were told they are inland, and it’s rare to see a koala. My parents also said they gathered from the native people in Australia that kangaroos are pests there. We think they are fascinating over here. My parents were incredibly disappointed that they didn’t get to see one. The cruise line docked on the wrong side so they didn’t get to see all of the sharks Australia is known for either. I asked them about the cockatoo’s or the king parrots. They didn’t get to see them either. You are so lucky you get to see all of these things because you live in these areas.
I'm surprised they didn't see much wildlife, they should've gone to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary down on the Gold Coast, they have just about every type of bird there, kangaroos and emus you can walk among and feed, koalas you can cuddle, and they are famous for the flocks of wild rainbow lorikeets that come in for a feed twice a day, and you can buy a plate of nectar to feed them with too! Not to mention Steve Irwin's "Australia Zoo" on the Sunshine Coast, they've got a bit everything there too! Maybe they didn't get much time on land though, which is a great pity. Let me know if you or them ever decide to come over again, won't you? Cos I'll tell you where all the best touristy things are so you don't miss out!
Julio probably just needs a pretty little hen like Peachie to show him the ropes with those eucalypt flowers. I'm betting he'd find both irresistible!! ❤️🔥
