Maybe it was growing up on the book called Katy No-Pocket by Emmy Payne and H. A. Rey having great affection for Roo in Winnie-the-Pooh that did it, but I have always wanted to see a kangaroo in its native habitat. Keep your fingers crossed! Meanwhile, here is a link that will tell you about this iconic Australian animal. Read, and then you can tell your friends how many different kinds of kangaroos exist. Whew.
Join us as we head down under to Australia and New Zealand, a part of the world completely new to us but inhabited for a long, long time. Our blog address is ozandkiwi2013 because Australia is sometimes called "Oz" and the New Zealand people are affectionately called "Kiwis" for the bird very common in that country. Both countries have very rich histories and cultures; we want to share as much adventure as we can with our young grandchildren and other friends and family!
