Clare Valley day 2

If you find yourself travelling in South Australia, in the words of the great Molly Meldrum "do yourself a favour" and spend some time in Clare Valley.
So much to see and do here and we have only managed to scratch the surface. Drove to Burra today, which at one time supplied 15% of the world's copper. Had a walk around the town and then did a driving tour of the historic sites around town.
Next to the caravan park is a new Blazing Bullocks restaurant in a 1880s restored house, with underground seating in the cellar. It is pretty special. We could stay here a month to try all the restaurants and wineries. We will be back!
Went to the old prison, which was used for the filming of Breaker Morant. This had been a prison and then a home for naughty girls. We had a laugh looking at the crimes and sentences. I would have been locked up for the crime of foul language and maybe insanity. Graham would have been in the cell next door due to being drunk and disorderly.
There are some photos of the old copper mine and its pump house. If you look to the top window you may be able to make out Ruby and Stevie.
Having a fabulous time and counting our blessings.Read more
