Someone on our trip asked at a wine luncheon if joeys were available for purchase at pet stores. A winemaker snorted and replied, “shit, no.”
Taking a morning stroll through the Kaiser Stuhl Conservation Park in Eden, we were able to see our first kangaroos at a photograph-worthy distance.
In addition to grazing, I saw them kissing.
I also saw them hopping (duh).
Our group, among the gums. I am thankful for such a lovely bunch of folks, as we are spending an ungodly amount of quality time with one another. I wonder how many bottles of wine have been consumed between us so far? I bet someone has been keeping track. I may or may not publish that number.
On our way to Adelaide, we passed through a high koala traffic area.
Turns out that in the tree next to the caution sign along the highway, we spotted a koala.
This animal-heavy day also happened to include Hill of Grace and Grange, but that is for another post.
A Thirsty Spirit 
Can you eat kangaroo meat or is it tough and chewy with all that jumping around they do?
It’s not bad, actually. Think less-gamey venison.
