Day 16: Adelaide to Port Augusta It will be a short blog tonight. We left Adelaide at about 9am this morning to start our journey to Port Augusta. It's a pretty straight drive between the two and we saw plenty of caravans going in both directions. Dazza has got "the wave" down pat now! Lunch was a picnic at Port Pirie, it gave the kids a chance to run around and burn some energy. It also enabled Darren to have the break from driving he desperately needed. H...

Day: 14 & 15 Port Elliot to Adelaide Wow, has it been 2 weeks already since we left home. The time has gone so fast but when I think about all the things we've done and places we have been I'm surprised it's only been 2 weeks. We left Port Elliot early friday morning and headed for Adelaide. The trip was rather uneventful and only took about an hour or so. Now, we have a little confession to make! We stayed with the competition whilst in Adelaide. I'm ...

Day 12 & 13: Kangaroo Island What a busy, but great couple of days. The day started very early Wednesday morning with the family having to be up and ready to leave by 7.30am. We arranged to leave our van on site at Port Elliot for the night, and drove the 1 hour drive to Cape Jervis to catch the 9am ferry to Penneshaw, Kangaroo Island. The ferry trip is approximately 20km and took about 45 minutes. We took the car on the ferry so Darren got it out whilst...

Day 11: Victor Harbor It finally happened, we got a rainy day but we refuse to let that spoil our fun. The rain started in the early hours of the morning so I made a conscious decision to have a very easy morning and not rush to get anywhere. So that is what we did. Nobody got up until about 8am and even then we casually had breakfast and got dressed. By about 10.30 (or there abouts) we were in the car ready to go be tourists. The rain had all but stopped by...

Day 10: Naracoorte to Port Elliot Today was my wonderful husband's birthday. Happy birthday Dazza! A big thank you to everyone for the birthday well wishes. Funny how every message was sent to my phone, shows how well you all know Darren and his reputation with his phone :-). We woke this morning to a slightly warmer temperature, and no frost. By the time we got in the car it was 10 degrees as opposed to the 1 degree temp we had the morning before in Halls ...
