This morning the group was up early for a morning hike. We hiked up through the Grand Canyon (Australia's version!) right up to the Pinnacle. It was a tough walk but well worth it with the amazing views from the top, and the sun coming through the clouds. Coming down the steep incline was worse than going up! After the hike we travelled for a few hours to the town of Warrnambool. Here we had lunch before making our way down to the Great Ocean Road. We visit...

Today was the earliest we have got up in a month, so a 5:30am start was very hard! We headed from the state of South Austraila towards the state of Victoria. Our first stop was to see some white Kangaroos, which are in fact not albino, but just a rarety which are in fact bred for the purpose of attracting tourists.

Last night we met a nice couple from Southampton, who are staying in the same hostel and we hav...

This weekend we have visited Kangaroo Island. The Island is Australia's third-largest and is southwest of Adelaide. When the island was first discovered in the early 1800's they thought it was mainland Austraila. A large proportion of the island is made up of National Parks and because of its isolation from mainland Australia, foxes and rabbits (which are harmal to native wildlife) are absent from the island. Our first day started with an early pick up from ou...
