    This time last year we headed off to Port Lincoln with the express goal of cage diving with Great White Sharks. While we didn’t see sharks that time, we did gain confidence — and the misplaced belief that this time would be different 😆

    So, against our better judgment and because we’re foolishly invested in the experience, we’re heading back for Jaws 2 (damn you, “see sharks” guarantee 🤦🏽‍♀️). Port Lincoln here we come, again…

    We made a slow start and an even slower run over the mountains, finally rolling into our first stop at Wellington Caves around 4 pm. I think we’ve scored one of the best sites in the park: spacious, shady, and with our own picnic table. Perfect for our first holiday happy hour 🍻🥂

    The kids enjoyed time in the games room, followed by a round of ‘Worst Case Scenario’, while Dan, Helen, Anth and I explored the Japanese Garden and celebrated a belated Happy Christmas! 🎄

    P.S. Thank the lord for a two day test match 😉 No listening to mundane radio commentary for 400 km!
