Thought that I was due for another posting. Spent the morning in the Adelaide Hills again. This time climbing Anstey hill and the tracks around it. The first 30 mins was tough but easy afterwards. A warm day but clear views over to the coast and Gulf St. Vincent looking over the city. The highlight of the walk was spotting an echidna whilst we walked down the part called Torture Track. These aren't seen too often in the wild and it was close to the track. I got a couple of photos of it but didn't want to get too close and scare the prickly little bugger. after this there was the ruins of an old nursery. The family who ran it in the 1890's had 17 children....not much to do in the evenings I guess. The 14th died when running in the kitchen and she fell into a pot of boiling water. Yikes!


I spent the arvo at an art fair in Port Adelaide. Not bad but quite a few "crafts' and T-shirts type of stalls rather than actual art.
