30th March

This morning we woke to SA time, the girls slept in until 745 and if we had not wanted to hit the road they probably would not have woken up until even later. It was still dark until almost 8am! We ended up having a later start than planned and hit the road about 930 and headed off towards Port Lincon.

Smoky Bay was our first stop and obviously sharks are a bit of a worry as there was a shark fence next to the jetty!

Streaky bay came next and we diverted off the main road for a little while travelling 50k to Port Lammat where there was the only colony of Sea lions living on the main land in Aus. The road was just being graded which meant it was lovely and smooth but unfortunatly there was also a LOT of dust! The sea lions were great to watch and the only pity was that there are just not enough hours in a day to see everything! We also stopped at Murpheys haystack, some natural rock formations on the way to Port Kennedy for lunch.

After Port Kennedy we went to Elliston and travelled along the Ocean road tourist drive which had some lovely beaches and sand carvings before heading along the home strech to our destionation of Port Lincon. We also ssaw the monument of Makybe Diva on the foreshore of Port Lincon before checking into another near full caravan park for two nights. Looks to be another cold one tonight so im off to snuggle under the blanket where it is warm!

Goodnight XXX
