Australia Day in Adelaide

Not only was it Melissa's birthday end of January, it was also Australia Day again. Two great opportunities to visit the capital of South Australia: Adelaide.






St. Peter's Cathedral






Rundall Park




Botanic Gardens


Along North Terrace they build all the museums and universities. Right next to our hotel.



On Australia Day we visited Glenelg; the beach suburb of Adelaide. There was a Havaianas 'challenge' with inflatable flip-flops. They didn't quite make the World Record...




On our way to the celebrations in the city and Elder Park






In between we visited Kangaroo Island, where we did a fully guided tour - spotting seals, koala's and of course kangaroo's







The Remarkable Rocks










Seal Bay








On our last day we rented a car and drove around the region: from the Adelaide Hills to the Barossa Valley


Look-out

Wild Horse Lookout

Every time we drive up to the Sunshine Coast we pass the Wild Horse Lookout. Time to finally make a short twilight stop and shoot some incredible images from the Glasshouse Mountains.

Moreton Island

Because our Moreton Island trip earlier this year got cancelled due to storms having completely ravaged the island, we still had some credit from the ferry company to use. Since this had to be done within a year we decided to visit Moreton Island late November.



The Wrecks, a great snorkelling spot






All along the island are pieces of ships to be seen

Imbil State Forest

Buying a new tent and inflatable mattress doesn't do you any good if you don't use them, so we've decided to spend a weekend in Imbil State Forest and drive around Conondale National Park.


Brand spanking new!
