Lighthouse touring on Kangaroo Island

Ghost on the cliff! Jose and I had a fun filled 2 days cruising the island to see the light houses. We found a neat craft shop, the odd coffee shop, great lunch stops, and lots of laughs!! we ate a bit of dust too! LOTS of wild life here ~ birds galore, kangaroos, wallabies, goannas, possums, seals...lots of road kill.
Cape Willoughby light. Kangaroo Island was often the first land the sailing ship encountered when they came out of the roaring forties that drove them across the bottom of the world.

The 'contemplation seat' is a memorial to aboriginal women brot here years ago, as slaves to the men.

....and we found Homer Simpson set in stone!!
