People often debate which city is better: Sydney or Melbourne.
Well, I definitely love Sydney, but Melbourne has its own beautiful
parts . This is the Yarra river. |
|
| 墨尔本的城市漂亮，但我还是更喜欢悉尼。 |
|
| |
|
|
The Great Ocean Road is the most talked-about coastline in Australia,
probably in the world as well. Everywhere we stopped, we enjoyed the
beautiful view. |

| I certainly didn't expect the weather would be so cool.
I had to wear my blue jumper all the time! |
| 天气部我想象的冷多了。 |
|
 |
I took every chance to climb the rocks. Imagine what
my mum would say if she sees this! |
千万不要让我妈看见这个！ |

I found this cute Echidna on the rock. |

|
| Mike and his camera. I often complained that
he spent too much time on this hobby. And then he would say:
that's because you have no passion!" Passion all right! It means we
have to go to the same place four times when we have very limited
time traveling. Because " the light is different at different times
of the day. |

| Mike is obsessed with lighthouses. Wherever there is one, he has to
climb it and take photos. |
|
| Mike 最喜欢灯塔，每到一个地方，他都会去灯塔。 |

| We took an exciting helicopter tour to see the coastline! |
|
| 看海岸线最好的方法是坐直升飞机 |
|
 |
|
| This was the first time for me to be on helicopter. I wasn't
scared at all. Just busy with taking video and photos. |
| 第一次乘直升飞机，我一点都不怕。 |

Nearly 600 Km driving from the end of great
ocean road to Adelaide is bit boring: Most places are the same,
dry fields, cows.

A 40 minute ferry journey took us and our car to
Kangaroo island, a land of native Australian animals, flora
and fauna. |

Kangaroo Ireland is full of excitement! Seal bay is one of the very
few places in the world you can see wild Sea lions. Many years ago I
saw a picture of a Japanese girl with these sea lions. I was so
envious: I have to see them one day. Today I am here with these
incredible creatures!

They are very calm, being used to people
walking around them. |

Most of them are sleeping like an angel! |

Off to the ocean, searching for food! |

Kangaroos, Wallabies are everywhere! No wonder
this island is named after them. |

Camping in the national park is an adventure. At night we hear all
sorts of animals crawling, jumping and shouting. |
|
|

This naughty Wallaby stole my expensive grapes. Mike even
threatened him with a shoe but he wouldn't leave. |

And bit culture of the Island. These are the
post-boxes of the locals. A fridge, what a cool idea! |

Although I was tired most of the time because of the impending baby,
it was an adventurous holiday. |
