Victor Harbour to Rapid Bay
2023年4月24日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Took a while to get moving this morning but thankfully our move was only a 45min drive along Fleurieu Peninsula to Rapid Bay.

Got some supplies and a few bits for the van then finally got away after lunchtime. Picturesque countryside it was too with rolling green hills and farmland right down to the coastline.

Dropping down onto Rapid Bay was just as amazing. The mountains shoot straight up out of the sea and none of my photos can seem to do it justice how spectacular this bay is.もっと詳しく

旅行者 I think we should put this on our list of places to go. I see what you mean about camping right on the beach.

Rapid Bay
2023年4月25日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
Did stuff all today 😁 just hung out at Rapid Bay. Went to the western end of the bay in the morning to look at the jetty and the sea life. The kids had multiple swims throughout the day & Corinne & I got waist deep 😬

The afternoon and sunset was simply gorgeous so Corinne and I set up the camp chairs with a beverage and we took a bazillion photos (be thankful this app limits me to 20!) yet unfortunately I think the pics can’t do this place justice. Has to be seen to be appreciated 😍もっと詳しく

Rapid Bay - Sellicks Beach - Adelaide
2023年4月26日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
We rose early and farewelled Rapid Bay stopping at Normanville for coffee & breakfast & Sellicks Beach for a look at the amazing coastline.

Arrived early at West Beach Big 4 so had to hang round for a little. Once set up we had a swim at the pool here (heated to 27°C) as the day got warm hitting 28.4°C at 2pm.

Headed into the City for dinner so wandered around Peel, Leigh & Hindley St before deciding on Italian.

Warm night but very windy, in fact it was windy all day. Not sure if it’s because we are literally a stone’s throw from West Beach or if that’s normal for Adelaide - when we got back to the park it was still 25°c at 8pm but the wind chill was taking about 5°c off. Eventually decided to pull down the awning because we thought we were gonna fly away 😅もっと詳しく

Glenelg to Space Discovery Centre
2023年4月27日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
After an early morning jog with Sid along West Beach, we all got ready and headed to Glenelg. From there we caught the tram to the Australian Space Discovery Centre near the University of Adelaide. Late lunch was at Rundle mall and then we caught the tram back.もっと詳しく

Adelaide Central Markets
2023年4月28日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
It was a cold, wet & windy day in Adelaide today so we headed to the Adelaide Central Market in the city, which we all really enjoyed. Full of lots of local fresh produce and other great food, we were there for several hours tasting & buying & eating lunch.

In the arvo we stopped in at Westfield Marion for some essentials and needed supplies before returning to the caravan park with enough time for the kids to have a bike around and a play on the jumping pillow.もっと詳しく

Haigh’s Chocolates & Pirate Life Brewing
2023年4月29日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Slow to get moving, we headed to Haigh’s Chocolate Factory at 11am and did the quick tour and claimed as many free tastings as possible. We got our fill then went to Pirate Life Brewing for lunch in Port Adelaide.

The brewery was huge and really well setup with indoor/outdoor areas, hairdressers parlour, merch shop, pinball gaming area and shuffle board which the kids loved playing (I want one!). Lunch was nice, although a little exxy and they had 20+ beverages on tap so I had a tasting paddle followed up by some others 😉

We met my workmate Rhiannon for a catch up & quick coffee after that and I was pleasantly surprised by how cool that Port Adelaide area was. It was surprisingly quiet (so much so Abby could do a handstand on the street - see pic) but there were some nice shops and I loved all the historic buildings (thanks to Rhiannon for the history lesson too). I could really see that place taking off if the right people get involved.もっと詳しく

Adelaide to Whyalla
2023年4月30日, オーストラリア
We got on the road early, off on a roughly 400km journey to Whyalla and had a quick but great catch up at Bolivar with my cousin Annette who I hadn’t seen for so many years.

We had stops in Snowtown for coffee & Port Germein for food (and Abby made a couple of friends) but essentially we didn’t stop too often. Interesting to see the changes in country now - it’s flattened right out and the red dirt is starting to appear. Many wind and solar farms on the way too.

Arrived in Whyalla around 4:30pm and managed to jag the last spot at the Discovery Park after our planned cheapy spot was full up. We had a lovely walk around the relatively new Whyalla ‘roundabout’ Jetty and settled in back at the park for an early night in.もっと詳しく

Whyalla to Port Lincoln
2023年5月1日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
We woke up late after an interrupted sleep due to some local riff raff hanging around the caravans late last night in Whyalla. Thankfully all was fine and nothing was taken overnight.

Whyalla was very calm and still this morning which was nice and we enjoyed breakfast and coffee on the foreshore.

We planned some stops along the way for morning tea and lunch and to our nice surprise it ended up being a tour of silo art and murals. Cowell had a great silo mural of a local man with his camel, in tribute to perseverance and tough life on the land.

Tumby Bay was a beautiful little town with crystal clear water and many murals brought about by the yearly Colour Tumby Festival which brings many artists and events to paint the town and its buildings. We ate lunch there and then enjoyed the silo art on the way out of town, depicting some local boys jumping off the Tumby Bay jetty.

We arrived at Port Lincoln around 3pm, setup and just chilled at the caravan park. We sit at the top of the park but have a view of Boston Bay which looks like a lake due to all the land masses but is actually two peninsulas and the large Boston Island.もっと詳しく

旅行者 Love the art work and Tumby Bay! I had forgotten about Tumby Bay, you are bringing back some beautiful memories.

Port Lincoln rest day
2023年5月2日, オーストラリア ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
Quiet day today. Up and about lateish, although Corinne and Sid got up to watch the sunrise at the beach at the bottom of our park and managed to spot a sea lion 🦭

We just did a bit of shopping in town (groceries & supplies) then drove around town to look at the marina and some of the housing and shops.

Interesting weather today with many spurts of rain but only lasting very short periods of time. Beautiful sunset with a double rainbow 🌈もっと詳しく

Oyster Farm Tours - Coffin Bay
2023年5月3日, オーストラリア ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Oh what a day to celebrate my birthday 😍 Coffin Bay was a beautiful little place and we had an amazing time doing an oyster farm tour.

We arrived at 11:45am for a 12pm tour, got our waders on and headed out into the bay to hear about the history of the area and the oyster farm production. We then waded over to their pontoon in the bay to hear some more about oysters, have a drink 🍺 and to shuck and taste some for ourselves. Turns out I’m the only one who likes fresh oysters so with the tour’s 4 per person, I ate 13 freshies and we donated a few to the group.

Lunch at the restaurant there was straight after so I had another dozen cooked (kilpatrick & La Francais) and a local gin & tonic 😋

Afterwards we explored the town a bit and enjoyed the wildlife and the peace and quiet. Before travelling home mid/late arvo to cook up a bbq for dinner.もっと詳しく

旅行者 Didn’t get to have that one. We just had normal size ones. The one on the left was just a shell, one on the right had an oyster and was still growing- over 1kg in weight
