Marion Caravan Park proved to be a handy base from which to check out a few of Adelaide's delights. We'd been told about a very good park near the coast a little further out of town. But Marion proved to be a quality spot near good shopping and public transport, a well appointed if somewhat higher-price...

Leaving Port Augusta, we chose to climb into the mountains to the east and travel the Main North Road from Wilmington through Clare, and hole-up in Gawler for a night. We'd tackle the busy weekday roads of the capital next day after a rest. Good thing too as it turned out. But first.. the Main North Road,...

Number two on our must-do list was a ride on the heritage Pichi Richi Railway. If you are in the vicinity of Port Augusta, we highly recommend this day trip, with its tie-in lunch served at one of the pubs in Quorn at outward journey's end. It's a distance of about 40 km from the Port to little town of Quorn....

Port Augusta is a town of contrasts. There is the waterway near the top end of Spencer Gulf making the place that much more attractive. Then as soon as you're heading out of town, you're into semi arid surrounds that seem to be another world. If you choose to drive up and over the ranges nearby, you're pre...

Port Augusta.. part A. Have to admit, Port Augusta captivated us. We intended to stay 4 days to look around and jump onto the Pichi Richi Railway out to Quorn. That was number two on your correspondent's 'must do' list. I'd been to Pt Augusta twice before, first time I was 7 y.o. then at 11 when I passed thr...

My must-do list for our journey included visiting the 'Whyalla' ship memorial, saved and placed on the hard by the City Council with quite a lot of difficulty, well away from the water in that town. Scratch number 1 off the list.. and well worth the stop-over! HMAS Whyalla was one of 60 Bathurst-class A...

Cheers to Pt Lincoln, we're heading nor'east along the Spencer Gulf coast, next stop Whyalla. We'd take a couple of whistle stops along the way, Tumby Bay particularly, after a mate said, "It's a beautiful spot". He'd spent a day or two there, making use of the tiny caravan park-up at the CWA facil...

Our 2017 trip to Exmouth towing our 6mtr boat PART 11

We / I love stopping over in Leinster, Its like following the ants to the food sauce. The town was built to accommodate the mining of Nickel and gold. You don't spend the kind of coin, unless the resource is there. A full air strip for the FIFO crews. Police paid for by BHP. After the end of the mining boom T...
