    Wagga Showgrounds

    16 grudnia 2022, Australia

    What they don’t tell you is the railway line is straight over the fence you back the van up to.
    3am freight train roaring in screeching it’s horn, bright light and bloody loud 4 or 5m from the back of the van. Just get back to sleep and a passenger train blasts pass. Czytaj więcej

    Euston RV Park

    17 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Euston RV Park used to have upper and lower sections. Only upper available due to flooding of the Murray. At least I have water views. The caravanning fun continues, the locking clip for the cutlery drawer is broken. We cannot get the drawer open or disassemble the latch. Need some smaller Allen keys. Job for tmw Czytaj więcej

    Port Augusta

    18 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Jeez max 36c as we arrived. Bit of a shock after leaving Canberra with max of 19c. At least we are at a powered site and can game aircon on. Water pump died today, hopefully get a new one tomorrow.

    19 Dec. Turned up at Augusta Caravan and Camper repairs at 8am. They were awesome, had new pump installed and checked water tanks(and filled them) by 9am. Off to Streaky Bay     Czytaj więcej

    Streaky Bay

    20 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Woke at 3am to the sound of rain and distant thunder. Checked the weather app and it was heading straight towards us. By 5am it was super loud and constant thunder and lightening. Then it just stopped and went silent. It just stopped. I thought we were going to get smashed. Overcast and rainy today with more storms forecasted .

    Rain. and clouds went away and the sun came out. Been a nice snd hot 33c for most of the day     Czytaj więcej

    Perlubie

    20 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Came out to Perlubie Beach to check it out. We wanted to stay here but a new booking system came in WEF 19 Dec and only 30 sites available. They are all booked out. Funny enough on 20 we’re occupied. I would definitely stay there in the future Czytaj więcej

    Streaky Bay

    21 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Went for a walk down to the jetty and then Pub for dinner. It was still pleasant but windy. Came out of pub 1.5 hours later and must have dropped 10C. Last night we had aircon on and tonight will be warm blankets Czytaj więcej

    Port Lincoln

    23 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Pleasant drive from Streaky Bay to Port Lincoln this morning. The biggest disappointment so far on this trip is the weather. It is cold and blowy. It gets to
    Maybe 20 or 22 during the day but a constant cold wind makes it feel colder. Walked down to
    The jetty at the caravan park this evening and everyone was rugged up like it is winter. Had a great feed of local oysters and King George Whiting tonight. Let’s see what tomorrow brings     Czytaj więcej

    Fishery Bay

    24 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Went for a spin out to Fishery Bay, supposedly Port Lincoln’s most popular swimming beach. Too cold snd windy to swim. You can drive on to the beach but would have to lower the tire pressures, couldn’t be bothered for a quick look. If it warms up over the next few days might head back for a swim Czytaj więcej

    Sleaforth Bay

    24 grudnia 2022, Australia

    On the way back from Fishery Bay called in and checked out Sleaforth Bay, site of the Mary Ellis Shipwreck. The beach was rougher than Fishery Bay, more of a surf or surf fishing beach. The dunes were high enough for people to be sand surfing Czytaj więcej

    Port Lincoln

    25 grudnia 2022, Australia

    The weather gods have been kind this morning. Wind is down and currently about 26c. Had dinner last night at The Boston Bay Hotel, chilli Mussels and a local fish called Nannygai. Both meals great apart from the marauding seagulls.
    Went for a walk around the coast from the van park towards town. Found a nice calm beach on the way, might call back there before we leave. Christmas lunch was at the Grand Tasman Hotel. Great feed and more Coffin Bay Oysters. Finally got a chance to put the drone up and take some shots near the caravan park     Czytaj więcej

    Lincoln National Park September Beach

    26 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Went for a spin out to Lincoln National Park (September Beach). 4 days ago there was a rotting whale carcass about 800m from the beach with great whites feasting on it. There are signs al over the national parking saying “Sharks seen feeding on whale carcass nearby”. Nothing to be seen today. Beautiful calm beaches though. Weather was the best it had been all trip, got up to 30c with very slight breeze Czytaj więcej

    Whyalla Playford

    27 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Drove from Port Lincoln to Whyalla. I should not have complained about the weather. The car showed 46c at about 3pm. Still 40c at 7pm, there was also a wind like a furnace.
    The van park kept losing power. We came back
    From town expecting a cool van but with the power outage the aircon did not restart. Van was a tad warm

    There is a video attached that is probably the closest we have come to an accident in the van due to and idiot pulling out. We are travelling on the Lincoln Highway towards Whyalla at 100kph towing a 3 tonne van. This dickhead pulls out of the bush (not even a roadside stop) and pulls straight out in front of me. Very lucky there was no traffic coming the other way. I was expecting him to scrape the van. It was bloody hot and the dashcam had just started playing up, lucky to get the recording just after a reboot     Czytaj więcej

    Lochiel

    28 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Can’t believe the change in weather. Last night it was 37c at 11pm. Had thunderstorms and rain overnight. Cold and blowy this morning. Never got over 22c today. Came across this fantastic pink salt lake(Lake Bumbunga) You can walk out on the hard salt. They even have a sculpture of Nessie (loch ness monster) on the lake. Czytaj więcej

    29 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Called past Urania, my great grandparents on my mothers mothers side were pioneers here in the 1800s. Bugger all there now

    Warooka

    29 grudnia 2022, Australia

    Could not get into any caravan parks as they are all booked solid with people crammed in. We found this free camp (donation) at Marooka, 7k from Point Turton. It is great, located next to the towns sports ground. When we turned up there was only one other van, now there is 16 vans, camper vans and tents. Went for a drive to Point Victoria and Marion Bay today. Blowing a gale and a cold wind. Hard to believe it was 46c a few days ago. Czytaj więcej
