St Kilda, South Australia

Today we had some business to attend to north of Adelaide. After this was completed we travelled on for a few minutes to St Kilda. We had heard many positive comments about this location but over the years we had never made the effort to visit.

On arrival we had morning tea with our daughter before she travelled back to Clare in the mid-north of the state. It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze, although it did get windy later. It was one of those wonderful spring days we often get her in South Australia.

St Kilda Playground pirate ship

Next to the picnic ground is a wonderful playground with equipment suitable for all ages. One of the features is a wonderful pirate ship, complete with cannons. We were amused to see at least one group of children dressed up as pirates using the ship and playground to fight a mock battle. What a great idea of the parents concerned as it was obviously a special birthday party theme.

After a wander around the playground, picnic grounds and the nearby foreshore to check out the birdlife, we had a picnic lunch.
