Esther came to my house

Esther came to my house this evening. I cooked dinner for us and she enjoyed that.
We used to stay with the same host family in Glenelg for a month in December.
She is a really lovely girl. We had really good time.

But She goes back to Korea soon... I will miss her.

After dinner we had a nice chat with my housemates.
They love her company as well.
I laid out a mattress in my small room and we had a chat before going to sleep.
She will have a job interview after going back to Seoul.
I'm sure she will get a good job. She is really clever and has a sunny disposition.

It is amazing that she have inproved remarkably her English skills.
Unlike many Korean people, she looked for a local church in Adelaide.
She visited some churches and finally found a church she liked.
Then she made a lot of friends in church. I thought she was really brave.

She came to Adelaide alone but she have achived a lot of things.
She gained confidence in herself. I am proud of her as well.

It was a nice day.

Kingston on Murray (3)


I woke up at 6 am and went out to take photos.
It was dark at first, I didn't expect to see a beautiful sky...
But I had a good time.
There were a lot of lovely birds in the sky so I only heard the birdsong.
I saw a kangaroo family in the caravan park as well.

I was unable to see the sunrise but saw the lovely red sky...
It was amazingly beautiful.





We had a cup of tea on the pontoon. It was such a lovely morning.



After breakfast, we packed our stuff and came back to Adelaide.
I was so happy to stay in Riverland.
It was my first Australian weekend experience.

Kingston on Murray (2)

After coming back from Remark, I went for a walk around the caravan park.
It was a carm, quiet evening. I met a a lovely donkey...



Then we had a glass of wine on the pontoon.
There are so many cookatoos on the gum trees.
The sunset was nice. It was such a good day.




MALLEE ESTATE and Renmark

After a lovely breakfast, we visited a winery.



The Mallee Estate was a family own winery and I liked their wine.
I bought some bottle of Shiraz and Sparkling Shiraz.
The owner was such a lovely family...
I wanna buy their wine again when I come back to Riverland.

They we had lunch at a nice restaurant in front of the river.
We ordered calamari, risotto and some wine. The weather was really beautiful.
We had a good lunch enjoyeding views.


We told each other, "This is a life, isn't it??"

Riverland Farmers' Market Berri

L and I went for a walk along the river. I saw some houseboat.
It looked really nice... I want to stay on a houseboat some other time.

After walking, we went to shopping to the farmers' Market in Berri.
It was such a lovely place.



We enjoyed some fresh squeezed orange juice. L had two.
We bought a lot of fresh fluits, vegies and some bread and they were good price.
I wish I could shop there every Saturday...

After shopping, we drop at Renmark and went back to our caravan park for breakfast...

After a lovely breakfast, we went out again for another purpose in the afternoon...

A morning mist in Riverland

I got up at 7 am. The river was shrouded in mist. It was a picturesque scenery.
It was really quiet, chilly morning.
I kept taking photos because the mist was disappearing every moment...




There was nobody except birds and I. (I thought so...)

It was such a lovely time.
