The featured image looks across to the Cape Willoughby lighthouse which sits atop Kangaroo Island’s eastern edge.
We were standing on the nearest part of mainland Australia.
Mainland Oz is “our” world’s largest island; and smallest continental landmass.
Relative to the mainland, Tasmania is tiny – less than 1% as big.
Tasmania is, however, by far the biggest other Australian island; it exceeds the next ranked – Melville Island – by more than ten times.
Kangaroo Island is a little smaller than Melville, but much bigger than any other of Australia’s more than eight thousand islands.
It would take a hell of a lot more than one week to “explore” K.I. properly.
The same is true of Deep Creek Conservation Park, which includes the choicest/wildest bit of the Fleurieu Peninsula’s southern rim.
”Epic views across to K.I” are just one of its many pleasures, winter is the very best time to visit..and it is less than a two hour drive from Adelaide.
My beloved and I spent several, variously “sparkling” and “sodden” Deep Creek C.P days in midwinter of 2023.
Next on Pelican Yoga: the resulting series-proper.
It will begin with the walk down to where this post’s photo was taken, at 4. 23 pm on 20 June 2023,..just a few minutes before we met the ‘roo star of our New Year post.
