Kangaroo Island - the 2nd

Wɔatintim: 06.10.2018

After a great breakfast, I will be picked up at 9 am by my B&B... Today I have a different guide, Gavin - a young Australian nature guy - we will have a lot of fun... :-)

After a longer drive, we reach an extremely remote beach, full of rocks. Very rugged, but with playful New Zealand Sea Lions...

Another great beach...

Then Gavin takes the group to a private property where Australians spend their weekends - truly at the end of the world, next stop Antarctica... but so special....

So peaceful...
Just peaceful...

Rare view from the toilet... ;-)

As we take a short biomechanical break, a special guest awaits me in the ladies' restroom - a possum has made its sleeping place there...

Then we walk along a cliff overlooking a bay... The colors are absolutely stunning. And I have a view all the way to the horizon...

Very special colors....

Even our lunch is amazing - in the middle of the wilderness, in a beautiful spot...

It's almost 3 pm when we leave the lunch... We drive some beautiful, sometimes very bumpy side roads... Along the way, we encounter all kinds of animals, including a baby tiger snake, the 4th most venomous snake in the world...

Be aware of Kangaroos !

We finally end our tour again at a great beach and watch the sun go down...


Back at the B&B, I'm looking forward to a sumptuous dinner and a few good drinks by the fireplace...

Looking forward to my last day on Kangaroo Island tomorrow, unfortunately we'll be heading back to Adelaide in the evening...
