Canucks visit SA
Hey gang,
I just had a wonderful visit from 3 amazing Canucks. We tried to hit many of SA's attractions. Of course I had the little distraction of work but I took the gals in and they enjoyed meeting my little Possums. Amelia the animal whisperer got to cuddle a koala, kissed by a camel and pawed by roos. We had a bit of bad luck on the Granite Island Penguin Tour as a couple of 12 year old boys were at the top of the cliffs throwing rocks and the penguins remained scarce. We did see one fairy penguin cross the road and very nimbly climb up the cliff. I was impressed. We also did the Port Adelaide Dolphin Tour-you know the one that I saw 19 dolphins on-well this trip I spotted only one. I managed to see 3 seals frolicking in the Bay at Port Elliot where we stayed in my friend Jenny's "shack". The gals had opted not to come on that walk so they missed out. You snooze you loose! We had a fabulous meal at the Strand in Glenelg. The gals also enjoyed fish and chips at Brighton Jetty. My adopted daughter Danna took the gals to Warrawong where Amelia charmed a snake and also on a Barossa Valley Wine Tour. I taught the gals how to do the Tim Tam Slam-yummy. If you catch up with them quickly in Ottawa you may be able to try some of the stash they hauled home-Carley probably won't share the white ones though! the only car music I have is the 4 set collection of Oh What A Feeling-the gals sang Celine over and over. My house now seems a little too quiet. It was wonderful to have them here to share in my adventure. So who is coming over next??????????
G'Day!
