After a pretty much relax day previously, we joined a day tour to Port Stephen. The tour was conducted by APT, which is quite a reputable one in Sydney, but of course, being efficient and reliable comes at a cost too, its slightly more expensive than the usual day tour group. Our first stop was Australian Reptile Park where we got to see the different types of reptiles in Australia, feel the Kolas and feed the kangaroo. We were all really excited, especially feeling the Kolas and Ethan was not even afraid of the Kolas and enjoyed the short span of time with it.
Ethan even enjoyed feeding the kangaroos and the ducks. This will be one of the rare opportunities that he will get to feed kangaroos and ducks.
After visiting the reptile park, we headed to Port Stephen for dolphin viewing. It was a rather disappointing trip as we were not able to get a clear view of the dolphins and whenever our ferry tried to get close to it, they just swam away. But for Ethan, hestill managed to try to navigate the ferry.
After the dolphin viewing, we headed for our last stop, SANDBOARDING at Anna Bay. We tried the 4 wheel drive which brought us to this desert like place, or maybe its a desert, to try out sandboarding. The sky was blue, the sand was white, basically, the place was BEAUTIFUL!
Ethan was with me and we shared a board. We tried twice while mummy only tried once and Ethan really enjoyed himself and was pretty naughty. He was supposed to hold on to my legs when he suddenly let go mid-way which gave me a shock. Luckily, I was able to stop in time and get him to hold on tight to my legs again. Though we had sands in our pockets and slippers, we really had an enjoyable day.
