Day 125: Hahndorf to Mount Gambier

Today we packed up and left the Adelaide area for the last time and made our way south to Mount Gambier near the Victorian border. We stopped in Keith to play in the playground between rain showers. This playground had a cool cart you could ride that ran along a rail. It was sort of like a short roller coaster.

By the time we got to Mount Gambier in the afternoon the rain had stopped. We set up camp at the Pine Country Caravan Park and headed into town to visit Umpherston Sinkhole (Balumbul). The sink hole was once part of a station, whose owner turned it into a garden and recreation area for people to come visit. It even used to have a small lake inside it. Now the ground water level has dropped so it is dry and has a beautiful garden that you can walk down into. Afterwards we played on the swings, and with our yo-yos, in the park surrounding the sinkhole before heading back for dinner.
