Lionel’s blog

Hi, everybody. I’m home! And… no! I didn’t get lost and no, I didn’t get my leg bitten off by a great white shark! But read on. You won’t be disappointed because my adventures were SCARIER and much MORE FUN!!!

Well, let’s start with Cairns where I met Fran, an Irish girl. She and I spent a day exploring the Great Barrier Reef. What an amazing experience! We went snorkeling. We saw the most superb fish and coral! Then, guess what! We saw whales! A mum and its baby… How fantastic! Really cool!

The next day we went to a Koala Zoo where we had one of our funniest experiences _ we met Elise, a pet koala who loved cuddles! Now Fran was hugging Elise and calling her “sweet darling Elise” in the most ridiculous way, when Elise decided to poo! I cracked up and took photos!!! I was so happy “sweet darling Elise” didn’t do that when I was cuddling her!
