Camping at Ulupna Island

We really enjoyed camping here. There were Koala's in the surrounding trees and they were the first Koala's in the wild that we have seen. There was one right above us in our campsite that had a baby with her. When I was washing the dishes after dinner I looked up and there they were lying on a branch above me watching me tidy up. They looked very relaxed. Our campsite was on the banks of the Murray River and we had a nice sandy beach in front of us where the kids could play. Our first night was a bit unsettled as the kids were up and down. The Koalas make loud honking and snuffling noises at night and it got rather windy. The second day we were sad to see our pleasant camping area taken over with young guys intent on partying through the night. We ended up giving up on sleep, packing up and heading home. Another premature end to our camping :-(.
We are really glad that we went though, as seeing the koalas in their natural habitat made the trip memorable and worthwhile.
