    Kangaroo Island

    October 30, 2006 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 64 °F

    I slept dreadfully last night. Apparently the male koala's call, "is a shrilling yell, comparable to any scary movie." And they're not kidding. It was a blood curdling scream in the middle of the night. Thank goodness I read about this before I went to bed.

    I spent the day following a driving tour. Saw lots of cool things and ended at the Cape Borda lighthouse. The tour guide was terrific.

    I drove into to Kingscote to use the library's internet, change money, and eat some fish and chips. I leave here in the morning to Adelaide, then drive up the coast to Melbourne. Looking forward to some humanity. It has been quiet on the Island. Did get on the wrong side of the road today, with a car coming. Oops. Live and learn.
