Day 13 (72)

81 Km Tantanoola to Coonawarra SA

The SA expected extreme heat wave has hit 🥵
Woke to 26 degrees and rising fast 🔥 with a high of 43 and wind gusts of 62km/hr ☀️💨☀️💨

Preparing for the heat wave we choose today’s destination in an attempt to avoid the highest temps, and have access to shade and power (for air con). And being within a wine region was an added bonus 🍷🍾🥂

And our current home/base is just perfect for us being located within the Hundred of Comaum vineyard, with views of the vines and the original winery building housing the camp kitchen and amenities.

👍🏻 Today’s drive took us through some beautiful countryside, passed vineyards and through the lovely town of Penola
👍🏻 Our campsite is in a beautiful location set amongst bush and vineyards 🌳🍇
👍🏻 Frozen icy poles perfect on a 43 degree day 👌 (freezer now working- thank you thetford 🙏🏻)
👍🏻 Darts and wine - great way to while away the hours on a hot afternoon 🎯🍾
