A Boogie at Snellings Beach and Home Again, Home Again, Clipperty Clop

Today was scenic drive territory up along the northern pennisula of the island , with gorgeous coves and fab beaches with the usual yawn, yawn , turquiouse crystal clear waters...

We spent the best part of the afternoon boogie boarding, swimming and relaxing on Snellings Beach wondering why couldn't we take a beach like this back to the southeast when we return!

Our final day involved a return to Little Sahara accompanied by hired tobogan and wax. Unfortunately we chose the worst possible weather to attempt any sporting fun as a gale force 90 knot wind whipped the sand up into a frenzy at the top of the dunes, scratching skin, blinding the smallest children and proving darn uncomfortable. Even donning swimming goggles failed to help as we tried in vain to brave the weather and ended up with one of the kids requiing medical intervention to wash out the ten tonnes of sand which ended up in his eyes!

Ahh bye bye KI and a fond farewell! It was also farewell and thank you to Gerry and Claire for showing us Adelaide and putting up with us. After a short tea with them in Adelaide and a late night unpacking Sarah's car, us mungins left for Melbourne and a lonely husband waiting for us.
