It was good to be back in South Australia again but their strict quarantine rules meant we couldn't bring any fruit or veg (including this cucumber) over the border.
The rural township of Naracoorte is famous for its World Heritage Fossil caves. You can visit several different caves including the bat cave - home to 36000 southern bent wing bats - so cute. We watched their antics on infra red cameras. The first picture show the 'wet cave' which was being prepared for an Opera night - great setting and acoustics.

The Alexandra Cave system
The ranger moved but you may be able to see some bones of an extinct type of kangaroo (with a head like a koala) still in good condition after millions of years and the crevice where they were found.
Its hard to capture the detail but the formations were stunning - as well as the usual stalactites and stalagmites we saw hermatites (growning sideways like spurs on straws), shawls and blankets, straws (thin hollow stalactites) and 'ripple pools'
This large dragonfly was getting its breath back on our porch
We loved staying in the luxurious 'Robin's Retreat' at Carolynnes Cottages. It was set in beautiful gardens overlooking vineyards and a popular setting for weddings (the dull morning and early rain shower cleared in time for this one)
The lounge was spacious and tastefully decorated and wine, chocolates, cheese and biscuits and fruit were provided along with the usual bread, sauages, bacon and eggs for breakfast
I have seen a 'Jeriboam' but not the full range of sizes!
After the giant lobster in Kingston (Larry) Here's the giant Koala near Horsham
Graffitti on the police station!
