My aunt lived in Melbourne and sent me a soft toy kangaroo as a present when I was little. I loved it and watched Skippy and dreamed of one day going to Australia and seeing them. So years later when I had the chance to get to Sydney the one animal I wanted to see was the kangaroo. OK I had to go to the zoo to see them but I never knew there was so many different types and yes I still like them and dream of one day returning and seeing them hop about free in the wild :)
