Craig, Luci and I did a nice hike in Deep Creek Conservation Park this past weekend. (http://www.parks.sa.gov.au/deepcreek/index.htm, about 1 1/2 hour south of us)
Check out our pictures of the beautiful southern Fleurieu Peninsula Coastline, and Kangaroo Island.

This fun coastal flower is strangely called PigFace - I don't get it. But the leaves are really cool - I personally prefer to call them Ocean Fries.
This one is the Bottlebrush.
Tons of 'roos - we must have seen at least 100
Uni update
Post-exam celebrations at the local wineries...
Scary...
Some of you will be very happy to know that I've started the first 3 weeks learning all about geriatrics (!!), allied health, rehab and chronic care. And so far I have managed not to kill anyone, or make anyone cry (kidding - they don't let us do that for another 2 1/2 years yet).
We've also finally gotten our free student clinic (aka TIMS Place) started, with its official opening last Saturday. It's become a health screening clinic within a government run 'allied health' setting, instead of the free clinics like they have at home, but at least it's a good start (it is the first free student clinic in Australia!).
It was great to finally meet our first clients after all the work that some of us put into it over the last couple of years.Inaugural health screening crew!
Koala Month
Craig and I have seen tons of koalas this month! It started with the 14 we spotted in Belair Park, then we saw a couple at Morialta last weekend, including a mom and baby which were REALLY cute; and finally a little toddler one in our very own backyard!! The last one was a little confused cuz he had gotten up a wattle tree instead of a eucalypte - but he eventually figured it out!
