Engelbrecht Caves


Hello to you. Today we are at Englbrecht caves. This is a photo of a scary rock formation . It looks like a grinning face in the roof of the cave. The cave above ground is crossed by 6 major roads and there are 12 houses on top of the cave. My uncle CVM saw the rock face first.
This is me looking up a solution hole. It is made by slightly acidic water working it's way up through the rock to form a hole. They are amazing!!!!

Owl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ow!ow! ow! ow! ow! Please help me get away from this owl before he eats me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (JUST JOKING)  This is a owl statue that we saw at the start of a nature trail. It made me jump so high in fright that I got stuck in a tree!!!!!!!!!

Blue Lake.

Hi Everyone. I am looking at the Blue Lake. It is blue because of dissolved minerals in the water. In a few days the lake will not be blue anymore and will stay not blue till November. So we only just saw it being blue. My owner brought some blue water for a souvenir.

Cave Gardens.

Hello to you. This time my owner didn't forget me!!!!!!!!!!! This is a photo of me at the Cave Gardens.  I wasn't allowed to get to close to the edge because I might of fallen off and you were not allowed to go in the hole so I would be trespassing.

I am looking through a tree down into the Cave Gardens .

This is a wishing well. Guess how deep it was? It was only about 20 cm deep!!!!!! it didn't even have any water in it! It was still quite cute though.

Mt. Lofty.

Hello guys. Today it is me, Binks' owner, typing because I forgot to take him on this adventure. Sorry! Today we went to Mt. Lofty for the morning. The view from the top was spectacular! We were going to go yesterday but it was so foggy that the photo on Google was a photo of white nothing. 

This was the monument at the top of Mt. Lofty. I can't remember who it was for though. It was very big.

A Ferry.

A Queasy hello to you. This is a ferry that we went on.It took us from lucky bay across the Spencer Gulf  to a town that I can't remember the name of!!!!! Our car went too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My owner was very sea sick. So was her mother. Her dad gets very sea sick but it was flat compared to what he had been on so he was not sick. The sea was so bumpy that they almost had to cancel the trip!!!!!!!!  

This is me at the other end of the Spencer Gulf. I was in my owners back-pack the whole time so I didn't see much.

Koalas.

Grunt, grunt. It's me again. This is me at Glen-Forest Tourist Park. I got this  photo taken when the koala got fed.  His name is Blinky-Bill. I remembered to ask. He was nearly as big as my Uncle MJM!!!!!!!

Maritime Museum.

Ahoy there. Today we went to a Maritime Museum. The Building used to belong to 2 men called Axel and Frank.  I am very proudly steering this wheel.
This is a boat is called the "Dolphin" My owner had a photo in this boat.

This is Frank's old typewriter. It is a bit broken so it doesn't work. 

I am in Axel and Franks kitchen. On my left is the kitchen table and on my right is the stove. 

This is a dummy of Frank. When I went in the room it gave me a shock.

This is a manual bench press drill. I am trying to wind it, but I can't reach It. 

This is an old telephone booth. I am trying to ring my friend but it won't work. I am hanging over the speaker to talk and my ear is stretched out to try to hear any voice.

I am in the blacksmiths forge. I am trying to lift the sledge hammer to bash metal on the anvil. The sledge hammer is a million times my weight so I can't lift it.

Eucla.

Hi, hi, hi, hi!!!!!! This is me at Eucla. This sign is stating all the distances to a lot of places in Australia. Behind the sign is my family's tent trailer in which we are staying. Just out of the photo is a HUGE model whale and in front of the whale is an old life boat that when you go in it, it wobbles like it would on the ocean.

Our Holiday. Norseman

Neigh Hello to you
I am in a town called Norseman at the start of the Ayre Highway. The town is called Norseman because a horse called Norseman pawed the ground and found a gold deposit. Can you see me on the top of the head of the statue of Norseman?
