Being on Three Hummock Island is all about being immersed in nature. The wildlife comes to the back door - literally.
These kangaroos are very relaxed around us, as they've never had any reason to fear the few humans who visit the island. It means we wander within a few metres of them.
How cute is this: tandem grazing. See the joey in the pouch? This was taken through the homestead living room window.
A short boat ride found us amongst the dolphins.
At one point 4 or 5 of them were jumping out of the water just under the bow of the boat.
This place is paradise for young boys.
Paradise indeed, but also for the whole family!! Care to trade places, even for a short few hours??
Enjoy the holidays.
Cheers, Rocío

Not such little boys anymore... beautiful photo. The island looks amazing, giving me Tassie pangs. If we ever move back to Melbourne we're definitely heading to the island. A x
