Mother koala holding her baby

Aurelie and I are back from our holiday in Brisbane, Australia. I took a lot of photos (of course) which I'll be posting to Aminus3 over the next few weeks. Figure I'd start it off with a picture of the iconic koala, taken at the Australian Zoo. The baby and its mother were sleeping (the only thing we ever saw them doing) and were so cute to watch.
