Kangaroo Island, part 4

I promise this is my last KI post! Our journey next took us to Admiral's Arch, which was beautiful, but very hard to photograph! This looks like an inside of a cave. . . but the "stalactites" hanging from the ceiling are actually petrified tree roots!

Here's the only pic we got of all 6 of us! So glad Mom and Dad could join us on KI. We think they enjoyed the trip. . . despite being stuck with us. . .

An old lighthouse on the island, where 3 lightkeepers and their families used to live. 

Back when this lighthouse was active, a supply ship would come every 3-6 months and deliver supplies to the 3 lightkeeper families. And these are the steps that all those supplies need to be carried up. . . oh my.

Just another pretty pic by the ocean. . . honestly, we visited so many beaches that I'm kind of losing track of all of them!

And the boys' favorite:  Little Sahara! These huge sand dunes are NOT on the coastline; in fact, they are about 2 miles inland! Scientists can't really explain where all this sand came from. . . but it's become quite the sledding destination!   

Ked may or may not have bruised his tailbone a little. . .

Eli had so much sand in his clothing afterwards. . . we probably dumped out 2 cups' worth in the parking lot.

Micah flew down the hills.

We all got in on the act! They ordered us to keep our mouths closed, so we wouldn't get a mouthful of sand. It didn't really work.

Here are the boys and one of our other tour-mates (a guy from France if I remember right). The boys could have stayed longer, but it was a long walk up that hill every time!
