Day 4 of our Adelaide trip is a quintessential Aussie road trip holiday. Uncle Andrew took us on a 4WD adventure to Deep Creek Conservation Park, located on the south coast of the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia (approximately 1½ hours drive from Adelaide). The park is the largest remaining block of wildlife habitat on the Fleurieu Peninsula and is an important refuge for several species of wildlife who are under conservation (like the koalas in the photo).
We arrived at the park around midday and did the unthinkable – we had a pinic of sushi and sandwiches (lovingly prepared by Auntie Linda) under the hot Aussie summer heatwave of 40C! The kids were very sporting and didn’t whine or fuss. We are so proud of our little Princess too. Despite the heat and pesky flies, she continues to enjoy her simple lunch of bananas and raisins 🙂
After our tummies were filled, we took a hike down to the Blowhole beach. The sea is a perfect respite for the scorching heat. Look how much fun Benjamin and Josiah are having in the sun!
And here’s Dana riding the waves – simply ecstatic! We thank God for blessing us with such a fun-loving, wonder-filled adventurous little girl!
Our Adelaide vacation continues to be so awe-inspiring. Stay tuned for more trip reports!
