The exhibit statement (best read with a Rod Sterling/Twilight Zone accent) says “Imagine, if you will, an existence where you pull one string and reality unravels. Travel to…
I’ve always wanted to see a koala and I got several chances to do so in Australia. They are so adorable! They sleep about 20 hours each day, so of course, all the ones we saw were doing just that. However, we got to get super close to them at the Sydney Zoo. We weren’t…
