Holiday time comes to an end

Well it's been a month since we arrived in Adelaide and after settling down and finding our feet it's time to get back to work as we've both found jobs and start next week.

We've had a final few days of enjoying holiday stuff and we've visited the Cleland Wildlife Park in the Adelaide Hills and went to the summit of Mount Lofty where we got a great view of the city albeit a little hazy.
Finally we drove down to Victor Harbor passing through Mclaren Vale on the way

Here we are at Cleland Wildlife Park

We took a drive out to Victor Harbor and walked over to Granite Island - it was quicker to walk than use the tram and after all the food and drink over the past few weeks we could do with a bit of exercise!!
