MCC - Koala Spotting : Tuesday, 16 Jan 07

This is the base from the road looking back across the vineyards ...




These are the 2 koalas that we spotted on our first day at the base ...





It is a rare privilege to have seen so many koalas in the wild. I went for a walk with another friend on Sunday afternoon and we spotted a mother with her baby on her back and 2 other koalas which was just amazing!

Today we went for a walk in the bush countryside and spotted a koala sleeping in a tree not far off the ground ... isn't he adorable and so cuddly??

At the moment we have about 60 basketball teens on the base so life is slightly more hectic than usual around here especially in the mornings and late evenings and in the bathrooms!! However, it also makes things more entertaining and challenging! Fortunately, they are away from the base for most of the daylight hours playing in a tournament so we have peace and quiet to get on with our study!

We had a test this morning ... thankfully most of us passed with full marks which was encouraging. I'm feeling like I might be coming down with a bit of head cold so if you would like to pray for me, please pray that this does not progress and that I can maintain full health to not miss any of the course!

Tomorrow, after class, we are going for a field trip to Mt Lofty which is the highest point overlooking Adelaide and we may even get to see a comet which is currently visible in the Adelaide sky ...
