Birthday in Sydney

Today is my 27th birthday, and I'm celebrating it a full 17 hours ahead of everyone in the US. I unfortunately spent the first hour at the bank not getting much accomplished, but after that Tony and I went to the Koala park since Katrina had to work. The Koala park is basically a small zoo full of uniquely Australian wildlife, so I got to pet a Koala and hand feed some kangaroos. They really like Cheerios and pretty much hopped around following me until I gave them some. Kinda sad because they're wild animals that are conditioned to do that, but also really cute! There were also wombats, wallabees, kookaburras, etc. Fun day. Then we went to the bottle-o (AKA liquor store) and got a case of beer. A six pack of Toohey's new (the equivalent of Miller Lite) costs about $13 AUD! It's cheaper though if you get a 24 pack so we decided that was the best route to go. Happy Birthday to me!
