Reisende The grey furgy CANNOT be antique! I used to drive one in the early 80’s at Calvert’s.

Long Point, Corrong to Milang
8.–9. mai, Australia ⋅ 🌙 13 °C
Lots of driving over very flat country from the Coorong, Meningie across the Pink Lake (a grey sludge, with not a hint of pink!) And across the top of Lake Alexandrina into wine country. So much fresh water - the lakes are huge, and the farms/vineyards irrigate. Very dry countryside with bright green patches. Stopped in at Lake Breeze winery for a tasting, and departed with 3 reds.
Milang was much smaller than we thought, but it did have an outdoor railway museum related to the steam paddle boat history of the area.Les mer

10. mai, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Spent the day exploring the Fleurieu Peninsular after the essential laundromat and coffee. Very dry and bare hills except where irrigation is obvious on dairy farms - such a contrast. Checked out the Fork Tree micro brewery & found good porter.
Long late lunch at Lost Phoenix farm and Gin DistilleryLes mer

Early start with Tony and Leigh leaving at 7am to drive the Mustang to 'Cars & Coffee' on the Victor Harbor foreshore. Lea and I followed at 8am. Finished up at about 10am, and then Leigh & I spent the rest of the day walking around Granite Island, the Bluff and exploring. Beautiful spot, with lots of new houses going in.....Water supply comes all the way from Mypongo Dam
The algal bloom warnings are out on all the beaches - saw the dirty foam along the shorelineLes mer

Coffee at Delamere general store again before walking around the old Talisker silver mine - well interpreted
Drove into the Deep Creek NP, and set up for 2 nights at Cobblers Hill camp-site. Worse dirt road we've come across - deep corrugations- very slow 3km in!
Afternoon walk Blowhole beach (nothing blowing!) - Marrano Creek circuit (5km) which is part of the south end of the Heysen Trail

Lots of school kids arrived between 5-6pm last night and it was just as noisy as you'd expect as they set up camp and ate! We're far enough away not to be bothered.
Off at 8.30am to walk the Aaron's creek circuit and Goondooloo Ridge lookout. More butterflies (Monarchs) on the ridges and a wedge tail eagle overhead at the look out. Lots of galahs, magpies, blue wrens, crimson robins, and others we couldn't ID.
Quiet afternoon reading and playing games with a cool southerly change and some spits of rainLes mer

ReisendeHi Jennie & Leigh - I was having trouble keeping two travel logs - most people are following my posts on WhatsApp so I continued with just that. I posted a WhatsApp message to you but I assume you are not active. If you want to see what I’ve been doing with photos I’ll provide the group link (no travel map unfortunately - only Penguins does that…!)

Koalas, Whalers Way & more Koalas!
22. mai, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
Rained overnight, briefly. Spent the morning touring the Mikkira property with Helen, the 3rd generation owner. Spotted well over 40 koalas!
The 600 acres has not been cleared fully, and not run sheep for over 70+ years. It became a Sanctuary 50 years ago for an insurance population of koalas from Kangaroo Island, as the same rare trees grow in both areas.Les mer

Everywhere we looked around the lower Eyre Peninsular, Matthew Flinders had been in 1803/4- measured, searched for water, lost crew (8 in one go - very bad form!) charted and generally assessed!

More Koala action overnight with an argument/dispute happening a few feet from where we sat having our prawn & squid dinnerLes mer

Back to L'Anse for an amazing feast for breakfast. Buttermilk pancakes & Mushroom Eggs Benedict. No newspapers in Port Lincoln (except the local)
Winter Hill lookout, then drove around Coffin Bay NP (windy and no accessible walks)
Long drive to Elliston for overnight.
Forecast for severe southern coastal winds, rain and possible storms. Decided to stay inland and head towards Flinders Ranges over next couple of daysLes mer

My Hat! - wind, rain and dust clouds
26. mai, Australia ⋅ 🌧 12 °C
We had a safe night tucked up near the camp kitchen at Cleve. The next morning the wind increased, with strong gusts. We drove up Observation Hill at Cleve (100m if I'm generous) and as we got out of the car. A gust ripped Leigh's cap off his head and 5m up and away! My Hat!!! was yelled and he was off and running - it came down into bushes nearby and was saved - disaster averted!!!Les mer

Cuttlefish and Silo light show
27. mai, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
Due to weather, the boat tours had been cancelled for 3 days. One at 10.30 am today, and the rest for the days cancelled. Spent 90 min watching various fish, dolphins, one seal, terns, and cormorants. The cuttlefish were amazing to see, with the males luminescing and chasing each other. No photos as too difficult.
Came back into the marina through 1m swell and rising wind.
Port Augusta - a point on the map.
Very dry and empty landscape out to Flinders Ranges via the Pichi Richi Pass (following the old railway line)Les mer
