Popeye is alive and well in Adelaide, South Australia. Popeye, the motor launch, that is.
It cruises along the River Torrens and it makes a leisurely way to see the city from the river.
It cruises under the city bridge, past the Adelaide University, and has another boarding area near the Adelaide Zoo. For a bit more footage see Video Clip (part 1).

Popeye is Alive and Well in Adelaide, South Australia. Video Clip (part 1)
Popeye is alive and well in Adelaide, South Australia. Popeye, the motor launch, that is.
It cruises along the River Torrens and it makes a leisurely way to see the city from the river.
It has one boarding area near the fountain, just down from the Festival Theatre and Parliament House. For a bit more footage see Video Clip (part 2).

Baa Baa Black Sheep Video Clip
These are the black sheep I stopped to film before I saw the car being washed in the creek. They were in a paddock in the Southern Flinders Ranges, South Australia.
It pays to look on both sides of the road when travelling. Also, once you're out the car then listen to hear what else is going on.

Kangaroo Capers - "Mum, I'm itchy!" Video Clip
Kangaroos, especially joeys, are very cute. These two were filmed at Wilpena, in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia, during Off the Beaten Track.
It's the same joey that winked at me when I was taking its photo.

Cows Down Pat - No Bull! Video Clip
You can find out more about a country by going to a show (agricultural and horticultural, that is) or a state fair.
There you will see domestic animals and birds, flowers and plants, crafts, machinery, fashion shows, show jumping, wood chopping and so on.
My DVD, "A day at the Show", highlights most of these. In particular, I liked the cattle, so here is a random selection taken from the DVD (not the actual music though).
This is just for a bit of fun.

Feathered Fathers Coddle Cute Chicks - Exceptional Emus! Video Clip
During Off the Beaten Track, we did a day trip from Rawnsley Park to the Great Wall of China (a range of hills) in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia.
On the way, we saw several adult emus and about 14 chicks. The great thing about emus is that the fathers are the ones that usually babysit the young.
Just enjoy this short clip - the chicks are so cute.

Car Wash Country Style Video Clip
On the way home from Off the Beaten Track, I stopped to photograph some sheep in a paddock not far from Melrose, in the Southern Flinders Ranges.
Above the chorus of bleating lambs I could hear the sound of running water and went to investigate.
The side road crossed the creek and there in the middle of the crossing was a man cleaning his car.
Just goes to show how resourceful country people are. Not a "loo with a view" this time, but a "car wash with a view"!
