Giday Cienden,

Thanks for the reply. Glad you enjoyed your time in our fair country. Would like to retire back to the Blue Mountains eventually. So I know the area your talking about quite well.

By the way, Koala's are nocturnal mostly, as are most Aussie animals. So it is rare that you see them about during the day.

Word of warning to visitor to OZ. Don't travel on the roads in the bush on dusk or dawn. This is when the wildlife are most likely to be on the road. In fact Kangaroos are frequently found bouncing down the road heading straight along the road. The theory is they enjoy the pace they can generate from the hard straight surface.
