Monday - Kangaroo Island


Today was our last day on Kangaroo Island, and we took the opportunity to do a bit of relaxing. We had a quiet morning with breakfast and then some spa treatments, followed by some time sitting and looking at the ocean and lunch.
After lunch, we went on the 'Clifftop Walk' which was about 90 minutes of walking on the property along the water's edge. It was very pretty.
Afterwards, Craig went to explore one of the nearby beaches, while I relaxed and read.
We then took a short drive for the 'Kangaroos and canapes' activity which basically was standing in a field, having some drinks and appetizers, while surrounded by a decent number of kangaroos who were eating their dinner while the sun set.

We had another great dinner here. Overall, this is a spectacular place.
Tomorrow (Tuesday) we leave bright and early and head up to Ayer's Rock/Uluru for 3 days.

Thanks for all the comments! We're glad to know that some people are following along!
To answer a few questions :
SOL the kangaroo was mostly trying to climb Craig's leg even though the picture looks like he is trying to have an intimate moment; he's just a baby, so he is just playful
It theoretically would have been nice to have the koala climbing on one of us as well, although in reality, they are much bigger than I expected (~25-30lbs) and don't look so friendly given the pretty big claws...
