I SAW EMU'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I surprised myself with how excited I was. I wasn't expecting them at all, was just driving through this MASSIVE national park called Wilsons Promintry, turned the corner, and BAM. Helllooo emu's. Its sad to think that the second thing that came to my mind when I was taking photos of them (the first being, I feel like such a trigger-happy Japanese tourist right now) was a line from the simpsons "Emu farm...you're priceless Marge" haha, there's a simpsons quote that relates to pretty much every moment in life don't you think :p.
Wilsons Promintry National Park is seriously amazing; unfortunately it was really overcast and the photos didn't even come close to doing the views justice. You know in the Lion King when Simba stands on pride rock and looks out over the whole "kingdom"/land? That's pretty much what it felt like from each of the lookouts along the way. The few hours I spent driving through it was like my very own Australian safari; animals EVERYWHERE! Kangaroos, wombats, emus, a zillion different types of birds. Loved it :) clearly too windy for a photo of me though!
I left as it was getting dark and moved on to find a caravan park. I'd signed in & paid & everything, then on my way out of the office I turned back to the lady and asked "where am I?" haha I couldn't have told you for a million dollars what the town was called I was in. Leongatha apparently :)
