After many years loping across the grassy plains & savannahs of Africa & sleeping in til noon, happy-go-lucky Lewis the Lion figured it was time for a change of scenery. It took a bit of persuading, but he finally convinced his best pal Jimmy the Elephant to come backpacking with him across Australia. Unlike Jimmy, who can be a little grumpy sometimes (cant we all?), Lewis the Lion is known for being cheerful & chipper no matter what. He has met lots of other friendly animal expats along the Aussie tourist trails, & his favourite things to do in Australia include catching waves on his boogie-board & lining up for the weekend sausage-sizzles at Bunnings.
