memilesaway: Morisset Park and the Kangaroos

On my second last weekend in Sydney we made an excursion to the Morisset Park, a small park close to Newcastle where you are able to see wild-living Kangaroos. The journey of 2 1/2 hours is just 11.80$ return and it is definitely worth it!

On our 4 km walk from the train station up to the park we have once again experienced the auxiliary readiness of the Australians. Again and again cars stopped beside us and asked whether them should take us up to the park. OK with more than 30C° we haven't looked quite fresh any more, maybe they have even been sorry for us. :D

Then finally after a approx. 40 minutes walk we arrived in the park and were also welcomed immediately by a kangaroo on the street. The animals are accustomed person and hence especially trusting, they can be even touched. We have spent the whole day in the park and have got really amusing photos with the Kangaroos. If you travel the eastcoast of Australia you have to stop at Morisset Park!
