Wine and Wombats

We drove through the Yarra Valley through wine country today for a stopover at the Healesville Sanctuary where we visited some of Australia's indigenous animals in their semi-natural habitats. Koalas, Kangaroos, wombats, Tasmanian devils, etc. Highlight of the day: We were supposed to see a bird of prey exhibition until the bird flew away and didn'tcome back. The handler did a great job of playing down his absolute panic in front of the crowd

Koala, Tasmanian Devil and some Kangaroos



On the way back into town we stopped by Rochford Winery and had lunch and a glass of pinot gris. Twas Delicious.
