introducing... Mr. Aussie...

Here is Mr. Aussie. And his joey in his arms, named... Joey... heh!! do you know that a baby for kangaroo and koala is called joey? hence, for easier recognition in the future, I called the baby for my Mr. Aussie, Joey!!
And reminder for any of you human out there about to have babies, don't ever, and I repeat, e.v.e.r., name your baby, joey... it's an equivalent to the names of the babies of particular types of animals in Australia... now you know, thanks to me, ihih!!
so, back to my Mr. Aussie.. where was he born, you ask me? here it is...
Here I was standing with my sis-in-law in front of the place where Mr. Aussie was born, the Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne, hugging him for the very first time... he cost me AUSD28... quite expensive when you convert to ringgit malaysia, around 70+ ringgit, but his cuteness is worth it... not to mention his very well-behaved joey (since that particular baby was stitched to his dad's front, he can't actually go anywhere now, can he?)hehehe...
here's where i gathered the info about Mr. Aussie's species, at the Healesville Sanctuary (more about it in melbourne trip entries, which i'll upload later, maybe... hopefully, i will be that rajin, :))

And here's a pic of a real koala, which i forgot what was his name... he was sleeping, though, it was not yet time to open his eyes, which he will when it's lunchtime, but we were early, so we only caught him sleeping cutely hugging the tree...
Koalas, unlike kangaroos are very shy animals... they hardly come closer to human, just curling themselves around the tree trunks and covering their faces with their hands... unlike kangaroos which we can actually feed with our own hands as they come trotting closer to human, no shame at all...:)
And now, here is Mr. Aussie with his new companions...

Or maybe I should say here are Baby Pooh and Baby Pinky Measles with their new companion, Mr. Aussie and Baby Joey...heh... they are still teaching Mr. Aussie how to speak malay, and english without the Australian brawl (G'day, mate!!)... just kidding! hehe...
If they really do speak, i'll pass out on the bed... seriously.
so, there they are, my companions...
hm...
p/s: pray i'll be rajin enough to post entries on the trip to melbourne... berkobar-kobar sebenarnya nak buat travellog, but then, the trip was almost two weeks, we went to a lot of places, so there were a lot of things to tell... not enough time to do it 2nite, though, there are pics to be edited, bla..bla...bla...
see ya... I'm gonna go hugging my companions now! ciao!! ;)
