Koalas, Echnidnas and 'Roos (Oh My!)
Over the course of the three day trip to Kangaroo Island I took 869
photos and kept 715 them. Yes, quite a few photos. Brought the total
kept over the course of the trip 7,252 photos at 4.29 gB. Yeah, a few
photos. Works out to 26.56 photos per day over 273 but as usual a day
like Wednesday where I kept 402 photos throws that average off. Aren't
you glad I don't upload them all?
This time I separated them not by day but rather by the three main
types of photos over the course of the trip - flowers, scenery and animals. With the
way my photo habits were going after the first day, I was predicting
flowers would be the clear winner in terms of uploads but I ended up
with 83 scenery (included sunsets), 25 animals and 40 flowers. No, I
don't expect anyone to look at all 148 photos but they're there.
All in all it was a fabulous trip. Three full days on the island and
we covered everything and more. The sunsets were amazing as they
always are but I was most amazed by the wildlife we saw: three cars
stopping for a mother duck and her brood crossing the road, heaps of
seals and their pups at Admiral's Arch (see above), koalas including
one with its baby, 'roos, possums and an echidna, among others. They
were all awesome but I think the echidna was the highlight because
it's so rare to see them--and I think we saw two but by the time we
turned around, he'd snuffled off into the bush so we couldn't confirm.
I swear I'm never going to get used to zoos again.
