What a wondrous & charming island! That was one of the most enjoyable films I have watched in a long while. Certainly has inspired me to visit KI. Thank you so much for sharing so as we may all enjoy!
Started married life October 1973 on KI. Husband worked at mine, which went from open cut to TWO underground mines. One mine started at open cut and went out under the sea bed which required special post pillar mining system. I was Secrea
Continued..I was secretary to the Mine Manager and also acted as Chainperson for my husband when he did some survey work re drainage of the Currie race track and survey of black mineral sand stockpiles at Naracoopa. There were a number of tragic mine accidents, and also a fatal road accident involving university researchers in the seventies. This movie does not show the truly harsh roaring forties weather so that the shrubbery appears sheared off and one did not usually venture out without warm clothing, even in summer. The beaches were glorious, and at times you might see a breaching whale. The fairy penguins were cute, and it was amazing to camp at the beach as the mutton birds seasonally flew in. Sad to hear recently of possible demise of the cheese industry...hopefully it can be saved.
Lived on the island in the late 80"s, went there for 6 weeks to help build the hotel (3:57), stayed for 18 months! Great people and pace of life.
That's interesting and yes a very leisurely pace.
10/10 VIDEO OF A GREAT PLACE, I WILL NOW HAVE TO GO BACK.

Thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed it.
A great overview of the island thanks - I can vouch for the golf courses which are world class, as are the crayfish and King Island Cheddar cheese!
Thanks for your comment. Sounds like you are a fan of K.I. We certainly enjoyed our brief stay on the island and the flight too.
