• Yorke Peninsula - South

    Oct 24–27 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Driving down to the south east side of the Yorke Peninsula and the countryside has changed again. There are quite a few salt lakes (some pink) although we didn't take any photos. There are quite a few art works, from wall murals, water tank art and mosiacs, and I've included a few examples.

    Plenty of wind turbines and probably a good place for them, because once again it is really windy. We got caught out when an unexpected squall came up in the middle of the night and we ended up pulling in the awning at 5am. Wind is the bane of caravanning life.

    Edithburgh (where we stayed) had the usual jetty with the addition of a couple of seals sunbaking on the wall. Around the area there is the usual rocky coastline and lighthouse. There was a lime kiln (decommissioned) at Wool Bay. Lime kilns were used to burn limestone that would be used as mortar in buildings (among other things). Check out the seagull - they are quite large and look like they have lipstick lips.
