last day at the wetlands!!! :(

hello people,
Well as usual we woke up this morning and started to pack to leave. It was kind of sad though because we really didn't want to leave this place so soon. We decided to make the most of it and packed as fast as we could so we could get out the door! We were out the hotel at around 8:30am !!!! early huh!? Anyway we practically ran down to the wetlands and to our surprise the people that ran the place remembered us from yesterday!!!
We went inside as fast as we could and being smart came to a conclusion that we should have breakfast so that we could stay out in the wilderness for longer!!! We scoffed sown our breakfast and we were outside in a flash!
It was a relief to finally breath the fresh air and peace in that I think we just stood there for about 10mins gathering it up!!! Then we away and walking. We thought it would be smart to miss the fishing to day and went straight to looking for our favourite animals in this beautiful place. I was the first to spot mine, well one of mine, which was the honeyeater. And I sat there and watched this pretty bird do it's stuff!!! Pheobe was pushy so we didn't stay as long as I would have wanted but we were soon walking again and Pheobe gazed in the pond/lake for I don't know how long, gazing at the fish swim by. At times she would jump up and point out a fish that she recalled to be massive, they were usually only about 10-15cm long so obvioulsy she had never cooked fish!!!
We walked around admiring for ages and when Pheobe finally looked at the time, it was 12pm. We had to catch the plane by 2:30 so we were running back to the hotel before you could think any wiser! We suprisingly reached the hotel at a record of only 15mins, we could run when we wanted.(Joey look out I will smash you in the next race of ours!) We grabbed our stuff and caught a cab to the Sydney airport, arriving there at around 2pm, once again we were late. We grabbed a coffee and some lunch and ran through customs.
We were on the plane just in time. We had seated ourselves and about 5mins after we were on the move heading to King George island where we would then go to Antarctica!
So I will talk to you soon but the air hostess said to turn off my laptop, so cya at Antarctica!!!
