Two weeks ago Anelle and I got together with our friend Suren for a mini trip to this harbor town that many have recommended for a visit. Suren was kind enough to drive us to Victor Harbor, which is a small harbor town well known for its whale watching opportunities, famous little penguins, camel rides on the beach, a horse drawn tram and the nearby Granite Island. Unfortunately, whales do not begin to migrate through the area until the start of July. Just missed it!
It's been a pretty busy couple of weeks here in Adelaide. Anelle finished up work, I put in my notice, my sister is here visiting and in the middle of all that we are planning our travels now that we know Melbourne is not happening. A bit late o this post but have a look.

After seven outstanding months in Adelaide, Anelle and I are moving on. I have received word that the University of Melbourne is not open to sponsoring but might be willing to bring me on starting in August and finishing up in October (when my VISA expires and I can no longer work). As I have yet to receive confirmation from the University of Melbourne, Anelle and I have decided to move forward with travel plans starting June 30th when our apartment lease ends. While I would be extremely happy to get an opportunity with the Uni, I am ecstatic about the potential to do some real exploring within Australia. We have plans for almost all of July, which leaves us time to adjust for Melbourne if I am given a position.
It has been a long time coming but I finally put together bits and pieces of our Kangaroo Island trip back in January. During that trip, my GoPro began to malfunction. At times it would work and other times it wouldn't. When it did work, a lot of the video came out distorted, which you will see a bit of during our time in the sand dunes. Anyhow, GoPro was great in sending me a new one to replace the bad one I had for less than a year. They even threw in an extra battery free of charge, which I was really happy about. You can never have enough batteries! I used what footage I could to put this video together. This GoPro video is a compilation of my In-Laws visit from Adelaide to Melbourne. We spent the first few days showing them around Adelaide. From there, we hit the road...The Great Ocean Road! 900 something kilometers later, we made it to Melbourne. |
