Kangaroo Island

This is the one place my wife wanted to go when we went to Australia. It worked out pretty well, as we were already planning on visiting friends in Adelaide. I wasn’t too sure about KI, but I’m a complete convert.

If you are interested in wildlife, you definitely want to go here. In the three days we were there we saw sea lions, kangaroos, wallabies, koala and an astonishing variety of birdlife. It is truly amazing. Fairy penguins lived under the house we were staying in.

Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. We’re definitely going back.

A must-do in South Australia.

Beautiful scenery and tons of wildlife. Wild kangaroos tried to swipe my lunch. Walked along a beach within a few feet of sea lions.

I spent two weeks in a conservation area on the island helping research the echidna. It was fabulous! Beautiful scenery, mild weather, and animals everywhere.

KI is an amazing place. So beautiful, so many amazing animals… sea lions, seals, penguins, koalas and any number of odd marsupials. And those beaches…
