You could always put all that spare time brushing up on the scones, pavs and camp oven casseroles/stews skills. But then again, how can you improve on, perfection.
Hope you get away real soon Mr and Mrs Kiwi.

I know your wallet has had it's butt kicked over this but, if you could swing it grab a hire vehicle and explore the Flinders Ranges, or parts anyway.
Which way are you heading when you get mobile? If toward Adelaide may I suggest you turn left off the highway just south of PA toward Wilmington then south threogh Clare Valley to Adelaide. A much nicer drive than Highway 1 south.
Cheers Neil

Possibly down the coast to Crystal Brook and then towards Gulnare (turn right just before Gulnare) and then straight to Clare.
If your main destination is Renmark and you are not fussy about Clare etc then continue through Gulnare to Burra and then on to Morgan on the Murray River and then to Renmark.
Good camping at Burra and also at Moorook when you get to the Murry and if you head Clare way then there is a good spot just after the bridge on the left at Yakka.

Brian

I would head to Wilmington then Clare, Burra the Murray river either via the ferry (free) or across the bridge a bit further up. Melrose is a nifty camp area and if the wallet stretches nice wineries around Clare. Less traffic that way as well
I have heard on dubious grapevine the Dept of Immigration might issue you two with a citizenship of Pt Augusta. You will naturally need a passport to exit the town..

I agree the Clare Valley is a nice area to visit, sadly it seems to have been in decline over the past 10 years or so, restaurants and other businesses have closed and not been replaced.
Was a time there was a financial benefit to visiting wineries, cellar door prices were always very reasonable and the odd bargain was to be had, nowadays, sadly cellar door prices are sky high, the same wines can be bought much cheaper at Woolworths, makes you wonder whether WW are bringing any pressure to bear.
