And I have no idea why everything is typing in all caps… what the what?!

And here I thought you were shouting because of what the DIS did to your photos!

Bali is looking gorgeous - it wasn't on my bucket list, but now it might need to sneak in there!

Your time in Bali seems much too short. It is a beautiful place.

I wished I’d had more time! But that’s always true for vacation!

Love the waterfall!

It was a beautiful one and I had it aaaallll to myself!!

And here I thought they hopped...

That definitely would’ve been a better choice of words!

Kangaroo Island looks very arid.

You know, I’m not even sure what the rainfall averages here, but yes, the landscape is on the dry side. It’s full of open grasslands with loads of eucalyptus Groves however, it is also wet enough that they can grow wine, grapes, and raise beef so interesting observation!

I always seem like I have to boost the color just a bit to post them here because they seem to get washed out and lose a little bit of the quality.

To be truthful, it wasn’t on mine either until I started planning this trip. Had it not been for the wedding? I don’t think I would have gone here at all. But I sure am glad I did!

I've had several waterfalls all to myself. It's... so much better.

We’re still on kangaroo Island in South Australia having a great time.

After some fairly stressful planning snafus, I opted for a bit of yummy wine tasting.

Wine makes things better?

Wine makes me giggle. I was not giggling before.

The way the rocks on the shore have eroded is very interesting. It looks like an igneous intrusion rather than some sort of sedimentary rock.

From what I could tell it’s all granite. Tasmania can get quite cold, so I’m thinking the way they fractured is from freeze and thaw. The orange is lichen.
