Morialta Conservation Park

K took me to Morialta this afternoon.
As it was boiling hot, we gave up to stay at home.

It was just 30 minutes by car.

There were few people walking in the bush.
But we saw some people climing the rock.



There was a small creek and small waterfalls. Of course we tried the water.

As it wasn't so far from the city, it wasn't very cool.
But we enjoyed short walking. It was much better than just staying at home.

I think Adelaide is quite a lovely place to live. Because there are a lot of nice place around the city.
We can go to most of places within 30 minutes to 1 hour by car.

Christmas in Cleland

It was cool Christmas Eve. I went to Cleland this afternoon.

I caught a bus from the city acound 1 p.m. and got off at Crafers.
I had a cup of cuppccino at a cafe. It didn't look nice but the coffee was so good.

I caught a bus to Cleland Wildlife Park at 2 p.m. I was only passenger so the driver stopped for me to take some photos. He told me it was the last bus in the day and I told him I was going back on foot. He recommended me to walk on the track.　

I bought one year ticket at Cleland Wildlife Park. It was $22 which is double of one day ticket.
Then I started walking around the park.
I saw a lot of wild animals such as Kangaroos, warabees, Koalas, etc.

I bought a map at the park. Then I started bushwalking from there at 16.45 p.m.

It was just a 2 kilometre from the wildklife park to Mt. Lofry Summit.
There were almost no people and no koalas (!!).
The track was well-organised so that I was able to find my way easily.
I found the sigh of Heysen Trail which I wanted to walk along.
I knew this trail but I didn't know where it is so I was very happy.
There was lovely accommodation as well.

It was such a lovely time for me to walk in the bush by myself.
Then I arrived at Mount Lofty Summt around 5.30 p.m.

As it was quite windy and cool, there were few people.
I got this view all to myself.... So happy.

I enjoy the lovely view having a cup of cuppchino.
Couples minutes later, I realised that it was Christmas Eve so I should have had a glass of wine.


It was so nice despite the cold windy weather. I stayed there more than one hour.
Then I started bushwalking again to go back to Craffers.

I walked downhill in the bush. It was such a easy walking.


After while, I arrived at the end of the track and then walk along the street towards Craffers.
One car stopped and two traveler asked me the way to Melbourne.
They had been traveling around Australia. They were going to Melbourne for Christmas.

Then I arrived at Craffers and waited for a bus. I had been waiting at 25th Bus stop.
But bus didn't come. A car stopped in front of me then the woman on the car told me that the buses to the city didn't pass that bus stop.
Probably I missed at least 2 buses. But if the woman didn't told me about it, I should have been wainting at the wrong bus stop.
(If you go to Mount Lofty by bus, you must catch a bus at No. 24 Craffers Ramp.
Not No. 25. Be carefull!!)

I caught a bus around 8:50 p.m.
Soon after I got on the bus, I told the driver about this. He enjoyed my story.
Then we had been chatting on the way until we arrived at the city.


When I arrived at the city. I was so sorry.
Because Esther had been waiting for me with Jon for more than 2 hours.
We went to a Korean restaurant and had Gamjatang.

We enjoy meal and chatting.

After dinner, they went to the midnight worship.
I went home. It was such a lovely Christmas Eve.
