As you can tell by all of our fun pictures we went to visit some native Australian animals this weekend! We went to a place called Cleland Wildlife Park. It is about 20 to 30 minutes away in the Adelaide Hills. We went with Brett and Sarah who we went with to Victor Harbor and the Crow match a few weeks ago. It is always fun going to these places with other people!
Pretty much all of the pictures show exactly what we did there! Play with animals!! I absolutely love kangaroos! They are my new favorite animal. They were so fun to watch and interact with. They are very soft too! I pretty much want to take one back home with me! I think a kangaroo would do well in a 3rd floor Dallas apartment. We also go to cuddle with a koala bear! Yay! I had to put on this ugly green coat I am assuming as protection from claws, poop, and pee. The koala was heavy! He weighed about 30 pounds and my arms got tired of holding him! They aren't as soft as I thought they would be. They are kinda of coarse. The kangaroos are much softer.
This past weekend was our one year anniversary weekend, so we ended up going to Cleland and then out to dinner afterwards. We went to a nice restaurant on the River Torrens called Regatta Bistro and then we went out to dessert to a place called Cocolat. It was amazing!! Everyone who comes to visit needs to go there. It is outrageously expensive, but incredibly good! It is pretty much a gourmet chocolate shop. Yum!
That was pretty much our anniversary weekend! It is hard to believe we have been married a year and are living life in Australia! I am sure will have lots more adventures to come! We miss you all!!

This is amazing!!! Amy loves Kola bear, as well!! oooh,, she got a question for you: is the beach there cleaner and more pleasant than those in LA?? good luck!!!
Shengzhi is that you? Calling yourself Roy? You silly biochemist! The beaches here have cleaner water, although we have only been to Venice beach in LA. We are going to a very nice beach in a few weeks with my mom and Ann's mom. The sand is white. Have you heard from Yuan? Talk to you later.
