We came to this amazing spot to enjoy the sunset and it's fair to say it didn't disappoint - especially when this little wallaby jumped around in front of my lens! #LifeAtExpedia
This little wallaby surprised us at sunset. Looking at him though, we weren't sure whether he wanted to wave or fight...! #LifeAtExpedia
