Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题) Our Great Ocean Road Adventure
By Donna Waverley
My family and I recently went to Australia, to see my grandparents. But before we visited them, we went sightseeing along the Great Ocean Road, on the Australian coast.
Dad had planned to drive, but even though he was used to driving miles without getting exhausted, he then read on the website that the road wouldn't be an easy drive. Anyway, we thought he deserved to enjoy the fantastic views too, which he couldn't do as our driver. So instead, we booked discount bus tickets and off we went.
Our first stop was where wild kangaroo lived – and Dad and I were taking a walk when a big one appeared! For a moment, it seemed to consider coming towards us, which made me a little nervous – but then it went off along the road and into the bushes.
That wasn't the only wildlife we saw. I thought it unlikely we'd see famous Koala bears during our short visit. In fact, at our next stop, we saw roughly six million in that area! Sadly, some gum trees they were in had very few leaves left, which people told us was because of the Koalas, although I'd read that lack of water is indeed the problem.
Dad had booked a campsite for the night, with ready-made tents – for an adventure! I wasn't sure about that, but they were really luxury tents, within walking distance of some famous rocks and other places we hoped to visit. However, Dad also said the sounds of wild creatures would help us sleep. That sounded worrying – until the “wild creatures” turned out to be frogs! So I was embarrassed by my fears – and kept awake by the frogs! But we had fun making meals together – we'd brought food, as we knew there'd be nowhere to eat.
In fact, this whole trip was fantastic!
