We are back from a lovely time away in the Grampians we stayed in the Wartook Valley which was just beautiful.
The weather was fantastic and the scenery breathtaking.
Mel was a bit grumpy on this trip because he didn't get out and about much. The Grampians is serious walking and by the time I lugged my unfit body and the camera around Mel had to stay in the car a fair bit.
Here he is trying to get through a barrier.

Just chilling and taking in the beauty of it all.
Personally I'm not in to all things big.... especially things like this.
Australia however seems to have quite a few.
Mel was quite taken with this fellow.

The one thing that there is an abundance of is these very cute fellows. I have never before seen so many kangaroos. Every where you looked in the Wartook Valley there were kangaroos I was amazed at the number of them.
Mel even made friends with a few.

The morning were cold and clear.
2 young rather unkempt males got out of this van.
Mel was quite keen to leave with them perhaps he is more like is name sake than we thought!!!!!!!

Hi Leanne, Glad to hear you had a good time .... great photos by the way. The scenery at the Grampions is just wonderful. Catch you soon.

Oh My..
that van is something else...
ROTFL
looks like mel and you had a good trip. the photo's are always so fun when he is in them!
thanks for the smiles!
Lol! Love the title of this post! Was wondering what kind of photos they would be when I read it. It had a whole "Debbie does Dallas" flavour to it! We drove past that koala last weekend too. I thought he was fascinating. Definitely big, but with a whole handmade quality that is often missing from Australia's "big" things. He is gorgeous! Next time we will have to detour to the Grampians. What a beautiful spot!
I love the Grampians too-looks like Mel had fun-great spot
Thank you for sharing these lovely pictures, Leanne! I seems as though Mel eventually did enjoy himself at the end (O:
Beautiful photos Leanne! It looks like a really amazing place! Glad Mel got out a bit! Lucy x
Looks like you had a great trip! I have seen the Big banana and the Big merino - I will have to add teh koala to my list :)
I love seeing the scenery around your place.
I love the way that the kangaroos are checking out Mel!
Wow, Leanne the photos of the Kangaroos and the mountains were beautiful. I called hubby into have a look too. We live in Canada and have not had the opportunity to see kangaroo in anything but a photo. Boy they sure are cool.
Thanks for sharing!
