We're back from our mini getaway


Talk about BLISS, no phones, no tv and no laptop for four days!!!

We have just got back from a much needed mini break at Kangaroo Island.  Having never been there before I was not sure what to expect, but talk about a great way to get away with kids.  We stayed at Hanson Bay.  Just about as far away from Penneshaw as we could get.  It was stunning! The view anywhere else in the world would cost a million dollars.  Ok so our accomodation was very basic but it did the job.  Plenty on relaxing which is what we were hoping for.


Imagine as sun is setting watching the wallabies hoping around in front of your cabin and waking to a bay full of dolphins.  We also saw a Koala close enough to touch and heaps of seals on the beach at Seal Bay and Admirals Arch.



The beaches were stunning, in fact close to the best we have seen in our travels around the world and right on our door step.

But for Violet I think her favourite part was drawing in the sand with a stick with her dad.

If you are thinking of getting away from technology and showing the kids a heap of animals in their natural habitat then Kangaroo Island is the place to go.

Thanks for the KI wrap up. We've never been there either (what is it with not going to places on your doorstep) but we want to! Merry Christmas
