Hi Everyone,

Over amonth since our last post, Internet coverage is our reason

We're now in Adelaide, arrived yesterday and staying with Marians brother for a couple of nights and then do our house sit for 7 days.

Arrived in Esperance we were there 14 years ago but our memories are so distorted and nothing looks the same. Found a great restaurant for anniversary called the Loose Goose, strange name but highly recommended and excellent food.
The wind waas still blowing and temps still in hi teens but it is spring so typical of weather there except a little cool.
We had the first problem with the toyota which was low oil pressure this turned out to be a faulty gauge so fitted a cheap gauge to monitor the pressure and will fit new sender unit in Adelaide.

We moved on from Esperance to Norseman which is the west side of the Nullabor and made our way to Ceduna the east side arrived 6 days and 1190kms later. People have said the Nullabor is so boring! admitidly theres not alot to go its no different to alot of the roads we have travelled and you start to see subtle difference in the surroundings and its not corrugated. The last 2 nights in WA we spent at Fowlers Bay and Cactus beach. FB is a loverly bay steeped in whaling history and CB is a surfing reserve which has been tastfully done as a bush camp.

From Ceduna to Streaky bay this a beatufull town and will explode during the summer season with holiday makers. Then to Sceale Bay,some of the best coastal scenery we have seen,Baird Bay, sealions and bird life in  ther natural enviroment and Murphy's hay stacks, an unusual rock outcrop in the middle of the wheat fields mistaken for haystacks by a Mr Murphy

We were treated to 2 thunder storms 1st at cactus and 2nd at Sheringa beach, amazing how much more severe they seem when your in the middle of nowhere. More lightening than thunder and rain so at night it really lite the caravan up.

Not going to bore you with every place we stopped at but there were many more great overnighters at National parks and DEC (Dept of Enviroment and Conservation) and free or privately owned camps on the way through to Adelaide, But will say that we spent a couple of nights in the Clare valley and one in the Barossa Valley, Some great scenery through here and the wines are great too. Will do some trips out from Adelaide back to Barossa and to McLaren Vale while were here. When the temp drops at present it 45.9 degrees yep thats hot.






We spend 4 1/2 moths in Western Australia and drove into SA on 1st Dec, The boarder crossing not so harsh as when we crossed into WA as we had eaten every thing that they were inspecting.

Before we finally left
