Sunday 11th June - Long Weekend in Tumby Bay SA A very early start and a cold morning. We are sorry to leave Streaky Bay but have to keep moving now. We drove 266 to Coffin Bay and decided to have seafood for lunch here, as Coffin Bay is renowned for it, particularly their oysters. However, we are both non oyster eaters, so fish on the menu for us. I feel like I am repeating myself, but what a delightful little town this is. Once again, a bakery, a very wel...

Friday 9th June A sleep in, then a look around the town. There was a very inviting bakery, but an even more inviting coffee shop with absolutely delicious cakes and slices. We visited the Tourist I, car wash then home to sit in the sun and relax over a late lunch and to admire the view. There was a sing song by the fire this evening and it was great fun and we met many other interesting travellers. Saturday 10th June - Whistling Rocks & Blow Holes T...

Thursday 8th June A beautiful 21 degrees today as we drive 250 kms to Streaky Bay situated on the west coast on the Eyre Peninsular. Once again, the roads are excellent.

We left the Eyre Highway at Ceduna and on to the Flinders Highway, and finally some green patches here and there. Streaky Bay has more than 360km of ...

Wednesday 7th June 2017 We had our morning tea stop at the Head of the Bight in SA on the Nullarbor. It was a beautiful day, now up to 26 degrees and we were very excited to 5 or 6 Southern Right Whales. The cliff top walkway, viewing platforms and the Visitor's Centre here are first-class. The views from the walkway of the Bunda Cliffs were just spectacular and the water was just so clear and blue. No wonder the whales love the area! We spent a couple of h...

Wednesday 7th June 2017 Coorabie Farm is a 50,000 acre property 8km off the Eyre Highway. It was a little deserted and of course, very dry and dusty when we arrived, but we were greeted by a farm hand and told to park wherever we wanted and the owners, Deb and Poggy would be along later to have a chat and a drink. There was one other van here, then a young couple arrived in a campervan. with two very small children. They had a little girl aged 2 and an 11 we...
