Spent some time talking to the farmer who owns Murphy's Haystacks and the 13,000 acres of surrounding farmland. He is third generation farming this land but the attraction has only been open to the public since 1990. We headed out on the dirt road all the way to Point Labatt to see the sea lion colony, which was fantastic as we got to see many sea lions basking on the rocks, swimming in rock pools and play fighting each other. One baby sea lion seemed to have lo...

It felt like a long day on the road today, packed with sightseeing. We started the day at our campsite perched on top of a cliff at Coles Point. What a stunning place to wake up to. The weather was sunny and wind still. We enjoyed a cup of coffee and brekky sitting in the sun watching the waves break on the beach below. We left Coles Point by mid morning and headed north, visiting the towns of Elliston and Venus Bay as well as some stunning cliff top scenery alo...

Woke up rather early as we had some inconsiderate campers next to us who got up early and made quite a lot of noise - probably unaware of how their voices carried. Also, I dreamt of smoke all night and discovered they have a bush pig set up almost under my bedroom window. A bush pig is like an oven, heater and hot plate all in one. You put wood inside, it has a chimney and a hot plate for your Dutch oven or billy. After brekky, Gadi drove to Ford in Port Lincoln...

We went on an amazing adventure today to the tip of the Ayre Peninsula to a place called the Whaler's Way. It's a privately owned piece of land alongside the Port Lincoln National Park that has been held in the same family for many generations. The area was once frequented by whaling ships - hence the name. It was quite expensive to enter the land ($30 plus a refundable $10 key deposit) as you need to unlock the gate on your way in and out. The drive is through ...

This morning, after a great cup of coffee thanks to my aeropress and a delicious brekky of scrambled eggs, avocado and cherry tomatoes in a toasted wrap (yes we are obsessed with toasted wraps!), we left to explore Port Lincoln in a little more detail. The weather was not great today, raining on and off through the day (and continued all night). We walked along the foreshore, window shopping and discovering a statue of three times Melbourne Cup winner, Makybe D...
