After our adventures today in Mapleton, Montville and Maleny, Mum and I were happily making our way back to Brisbane when Mum received a call from Dad on her mobile, inviting us to stop in at my sister Mel's new place. My sister and her family have just moved to acreage out in Whiteside or something - some 3 acres or so I think, and their property backs out on to a creek.
So Mum and I pull in there on the way home. The property is huge, and stocked with avocado trees, passionfruit, and maybe guava? I can't remember. But they've got lots of lovely trees in their backyard, and lots of spaceAnyway, when we arrived Mel had spent the majority of the day unpacking, and Dad and Kevan had been designing some sort of gate and panelling to 'Bethany-proof' the back verandah. Dad, Kev, Lach and Haz took me down to see the creek, whilst Lach put a crab pot in, and then we headed back up to the house. I went back in to try to help sort out whatever what was going to happen for dinner (Chinese take away in the end) and suddenly there was a commotion outside - "Kyle! Bring your camera!" Dad whispered loudly to me. Turns out there was a koala in the gum tree in the back yard. A real cute one too. I managed to get some pretty good pics of it before it got too dark, as well as pics of the boys earlier on in the afternoon.
What do you think?
