Luis, the beer was a South Australian pale ale. Cold and delicious, just 
right with the huge plate of evil food. The picture was
with a Pentax digi Point and shoot Sshhh, don't tell. Sitting in that pub 
you can look out into the channel area past some fishing
boats and whales swim past sometimes.

Hi Hoppy,

I know, it is not the best picture, but a very good one I particularly liked
the glass of beer!!!!.

Beside this the picture of the food and this "Snelling Beach on the north
coast" are my favourites, excellent work!

Salud!
Luis

For folks still along for the ride with me on Kangaroo Island. The last
twelve photographs start here

First is my lunch at the delightful Marron Farm. This is a restaurant on a
site with a winery and an operation raising these delicious fresh water
crustaceans for the table. We had a platter with grilled marron, barramundi,
dipping sauces, sour dough bread and some yummy local sauvignon blanc.

I sought out the hardworking chef and her waiter afterwards. A family
operation, no doubt.

This is pub lunch at the Ozone Hotel, delicious and oh so good for you.
Schnitzels are a South Australian tradition. There is quite a German
presence, in fact.

Snelling Beach on the island's north shore is a delightful little spot we
try to visit each time. Some lucky folks live just on the dunes above.

The last light station in my series. This is Cape du Couedic on the south
western corner of the Island. Right amongst some of the other most
spectacular attractions of that corner of the island. The name is one of a
number that reflects early exploration by the French at the same time as the
English. Flinders and Baudin met there by chance in 1802.

 

Thanks for looking everyone. Don't forget there may be a test later, so get
those critiques rolling in.

Cheers

Hoppy
