Kangaroos, Koalas and Emu, Oh My!

A drive up to the Mt. Lofty summit provided a panoramic view of Adelaide all the way to the sea.  We tried unsuccessfully to find two geocaches on the nature trail below the lookout, and then head down to Cleland Wildlife Park.  Here, we were able to hand feed kangaroos, wallaby, emu and waterfowl, and we got to pat a koala named Steve.  We had a long, sunny walk among the kangaroos, joeys in many of the females’ pouches, and then head home.

John and Donny redeemed themselves with a successful cache find just a few hundred meters from the house.  It had been a full day, so we relaxed and visited in the evening after a delicious home-cooked meal.
