Kangaroos




My Dad likes to play golf on the weekends. He took these photos when he was at the golf course. In some places kangaroos live on the golf courses. There is a lot of space and grass for them to eat and they are safe from other animals. Generally they are quite tame and are not afraid of people. You can't pat them though because they will kick you. If a kangaroo gets angry or feels like it is in danger it will balance on it's tail and kick forward with it's powerful legs. Kangaroos also have sharp claws on their front paws. Sometimes the mother kangaroos will have a baby in their front pouch.

The Beach










Today is Saturday so I went to the beach with my sister. The water was a clear blue and the sand was white and warm. We ate lunch at a restaurant across the road and then went for a walk along the beach. There were lots of people laying in the sun and a few people were swimming. After we went for a walk we bought an ice-cream. I had a chocolate one and my sister had strawberry. This beach is my favorite I always go swimming there in summer.

Beautiful Sunset

Last night I watched the sun go down. The sunset was beautiful. The sky was orange and pink. It was a warm night with a soft breeze. I could hear frogs in the garden. I felt relaxed and calm. My family and I ate our dinner outside.
