On the first night we decided to stay at the base hostel. We stayed in these tent/teepee things,was a nice change from setting up our own tents but when you comein after a few drinks at the bar and find a littlepossom eating away at your bread your not best pleased. Suppose it was Kim and Gregs own fault for leaving food in there but the little bastard wouldnt stay away... even after we squirted him with water and PJ gave him a 'gentle shove' (politely out i know). We did see the amusing side of it though...thanks to the beers!
The second night we went to Bungalow Bay which was amazing. It was a campsite with its own sanctuary. You only had to pay $14 and you got to hold a snake, a koala, a 2 year old croc, a blue tounged lizard and several birds. The Rainbow Lorikeets were so noisey and all of them wanted food, so they would fight over you... you would have a few on you hands, some on your arms, on your back, or your head... hungry little buggers! The cockatoo there was the funniest, he hated men but loved attention from the ladys. If Kim or Jenny went up to him he would point where he wanted to be scratched, but if Greg or PJ went near him he would move away from them!
Kim, Greg and PJ also did their own little bush-tucker trial. The woman showing us around the santuary said you can eat the green tree ants, or even just lick them so we stupidly decided to do it. At first you get a citrus burst but then it just stings a little!!!! Yuk!
