Lots of fresh air, walks and wildlife. We stayed at an amazing Airbnb that was perfect for Addison & Poppy.

There were plenty of local visitors to the AirBNB – of the feathered kind. It was lovely to wake up the sound of Kookaburras at dawn and listen to them singing at dusk.

“Kookaburra,” they said, “every day, just as the morning star begins to fade, you will laugh as loudly as you can. It is your laughter that will wake all the sleepers before our fire lights the sky.”

Kookaburra laughed when he heard this. “What if I say no?” he asked.

“If you say no, we will send no more light to the Earth. All the creatures will again live in the darkness.”
