>Kangaroo Island
>Had an excellent time on KI with Fabi and Sabina. Three days just wasn’t enough to take it all in given its road. Only 3 major roads are sealed (tarmac’d) with the others being best suited to 4×4. We didn’t have one so mostly ambled along at 20kph making the most of the free massage effect of our ’86 ford falcon (photo courtesy of Sabina, whos car this is).
The scenary was spectacular, and the wildlife just adorable and quite unphased by the intrusion we tourists make to the Island. Roos and Wallabys would allow you within 4-5 feet of them, and one evening we even had possoms join us for dinner. No matter how hard we tried to scare them off they were intrigued enough (and hungry, I guess) to be persistent and keep coming.
As I said in an earlier post it is expensive to get there, but it is well worth it! Especially to visit the Andermel Marron Cafe. They serve delicious marron (crayfish) and also have a small winery with some super wines. I couldn’t resist but purchase 6 bottles for the princly sum of $55 – bargin! (photo courtesy of Fabienne)
I won’t ramble too much. I want a tale or two to tell when I return to the UK. Here are some additional photos of from the adventure:
