Today we went to South Australia's only world heritage site - Naracoorte Caves. We went on two tours - a self guided walk through the "Wet Cave" and a guided tour through the Alexandra Cave. Both caves had very impressive stalagmites and stalactites formed in limestone - Zac now knows the difference between the two!! Clever kid!! Ethan and Gemma were quite cautious a first of this wandering around in dark damp holes but they soon got into it all. The boys loved each of the different formations we discovered and were great as we wandered around in the darkness. Gemma, however, decided that ten minutes into the Alexandra Cave tour she needed to sleep so curled up on Mummy who then had to carry Little Miss Sleepypants around a cave for half an hour and then up 35 steep steps to get out of the cave.
Home again for lunch and naps - Mummy, Daddy and Zac played several rounds of "Barrel of Monkeys" . After naps we headed off to the fantastic swimming hole again - we all had a great time - Gemma turned as purple as her swimming suit but still refused to get out. Home again for dinner then a wander into town to see some of the fantastic sandstone building and churches.
hmmmm - early night sounds good.
