Today we went to Victor Harbor, a little coastal town South of Adelaide.
We parked next to the lawnbowlers where there was a lot of action going on.
I love the nucleair explosionlight feature on my camera!
In the town square there's a statue of a whale-tail. It's actually a fountain and this little boy enjoyed walking underneath it. I hope his folks had dry clothes with them ;-)
And this is Klaus's wurst haus. Famous in the whole region for his german sausages.
This gentleman must be Klaus...
The whole little house on wheels (although it doesn't move anymore I think) looked very nice and cosy inside. Very german too.I was particularly impressed by the wooden sausage holders! I reckon they used bottle holders but nevertheless a fine touch!
From Victor Harbor you can cross the water to Granite island. You can do this by foot...
.. or by tram. The trams are pulled by beautiful horses.
At the stables the smithie was just demonstrating how a horse gets a new shoe.
The shoe is made red hot...
... and hammered into shape and size.
Then it gets put on the horses foot several times...
... to melt away space for the shoe.
Eventhough this causes tons of smoke and the shoe is really hot, the horse doesn't feel a thing.
We then proceeded to see the water which was crystal clear.
We didn't walk all the way to the island so you'll have to do with this far away shot of it.
Then we drove to Saudi Arabia to see some camels...
On the way back we were right on time to help feeding the horse some carrot. Nicole loved to have a go so here she is.
On our way home we stopped at a cheesefarm. As Dutch as I am, I have to say this was Nicole's idea, not mine. Nevertheless it was a good idea because we scored some really nice cheeses.This cow was standing outfront.
And a bit down the road they also sold strawberries straight off the land.
And then it was dinnertime. Inspired by the horse I added a carrot to my meal.
