Port Lincoln SA

Technically it’s only 288 km to Port Lincoln yet we’ll cover more than 630 km by road today to get up and around the Spencer Gulf.

A slow travel morning zig-zagging our way cross country through the pretty Clare Valley towards Port Augusta, enduring yet another Test Match radio broadcast 🤦🏽‍♀️ At least the Aussies secured the series win to take back the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the first time in a decade. Poor Steve Smith though, falling one agonising run short of 10,000 test runs! LOL I sound like a cricket fan 🤓

Beyond Port Augusta our interest picked up as we covered new ground on the Lincoln Highway heading down the east coast of the Eyre Peninsula. We stopped at Whyalla for lunch and fuel and to check out the impressive circular jetty - the only one of its kind in the southern hemisphere. Apparently the unique design was chosen by the community to attract fishers, walkers and sightseers. It worked - we duly wandered out to the end and back 😊

As we roll into Port Lincoln and find our way to the Port Lincoln tourist Park this evening the sky has clouded over and a light shower is falling. Hopefully it will be short lived. We’re channeling “positive vibes” for tomorrow’s highly anticipated shark dive 🤞🏼Read more
