The Farm in the Australian bush

Erin's friend, Katie, invited us to spend Easter Sunday afternoon at her family's farm in the Australian Bush. It was about an hour drive from Perth.

It's so fun to see the speedometer reading 100. That is kilometers per hour which is only about 62 miles per hour, but it's still fun. Erin drove us to the farm and we enjoyed listening to music and looking at the scenery. There aren't a lot of occasions to do a lot of driving in Perth and The Olivers enjoy the occasional road trips.




Here was my first impression of the Australian bush. The sun is so intense here.




I got to drive the quad bike with Katie!




The old hay barn.



This is my most exciting moment in Australia yet. They are hard to see in this picture, but on the right side between the trees are wild kangaroos!!!




Here is a better shot of the kangaroos.






Alpacas! Katie's family raises them and sell the wool.



Goats!



They have an olive grove. They will come back in about a month and harvest the olives to make olive oil.



Erin was so cute in her Aussie hat.


My new friend, Katie. She is so very Aussie and so very awesome.
