Kangaroo Island
What a busy day we had venturing around Kangaroo Island. We started out this morning eating breakfast watching the kangaroos off the balcony, little bit of a dispute between two males provided us with good entertainment! We hit the road and our first stop was Seal Bay where we walked the boardwalk and watched the…

Adelaide – Kangaroo Island
This morning we were up and straight into the breakfast, check the room and pack the car routine. We left Adelaide around 9am and had a leisurely drive down to Cape Jervis, only stopping at one lookout on the way. A lot of information we’d read said that the drive takes a lot longer than…

Adelaide
This morning we spent a little bit of time on some schoolwork while drinking a berry slushie for “L”, hot chocolate for “R” and coffee for “G” (although “G” didn’t do schoolwork!) before venturing out to have lunch. Our gorgeous friends Joni and Jo invited us to their house for lunch where we got to…

Adelaide & Hahndorf & The Hills
A very, very slow start to the day today. We attempted to get room service for breakfast but that was a fail after waiting an hour and a half only to find out our order still wasn’t on its way, needless to say it was promptly cancelled and back to the trusty Weetbix we went.…

Adelaide & Glenelg
We had the best morning today, catching up with a dear friend Jane and her beautiful kids. We spent the morning in the Adelaide parklands chatting, enjoying the sun and watching the kids play frisbee, ball, football and flying a kite. They all had such fun and we had a great time chatting and catching…

Whyalla – Adelaide
This morning we had a leisurely departure from Whyalla. Our first stop was the Maritime Museum just out of town which was rather interesting and fulfilled “R’s” military passion. Back on the road and the GPS took us on a country road that seemingly diverted going into the heart of Port Augusta. We didn’t stop…

Ceduna – Whyalla
Bit of an ominous warning to start the day today, we typed in our destination into our GPS and it said “Severe Thunderstorm Warning” …. eeek!! The weather started off overcast as we made a very slow depart from Ceduna as we soaked up one last view from our cabin. We decided to take the…

Ceduna
Bit of a miserable day weather-wise today with rain most of the day and otherwise very cloudy and cold. This morning we ventured out to check out Ceduna itself and have a look along the coastline. We went to Pinky Point lookout which is close to an industrial area with big piles of gypsum and…

Border Village – Ceduna
What a visual feast we had on our trip today!! The western half of the section between Border Village and Nullarbor has several stunning lookouts of the Great Australian Bight. The landscape in this part of Australia is absolutely stunning!! We were even lucky enough to see a raft of sea lions playing just offshore…

Balladonia – Border Village
Today felt like a really loooong day even though it was only about 500kms which is the same distance as other driving days. We left Balladonia quite late, 8:30am, relative to all the other early birds who were long gone by the time we left!! Our first stop was the Caiguna Blowhole which is actually…
