Yesterday we left at 10am and did a big drive around a fair whack of the southern part of the Peninsula. We headed from here (Marion Bay) to Hardwick Bay and Port Minlacowie, then on to Minlaton where we had lunch in a great pub. They had rabbit on the menu but I couldn't bring myself to pay $23.95 at luch time so did without. I was really greatful when the chef told me where he gets his rabbits though!
After lunch We drove out to Port Rickeby then right back across the peninsula to Stansbury down to Edithburgh (the first settlement in the area) on to Port Mooworie and home by about 6 pm. It was a huge day out as we stopped at lots of beaches and bays and lookouts between towns. It's a lovely area, but sadly lacking in facilities in a lot of the little towns. I think the nearest decent shopping would be in Kadina a couple of hours away. Anyhow, nice to visit.
Today we slept quite late, did a load of laundry, called the butcher in Ardrossan and ordered two rabbits, then headed out after an early lunch. We drove North to Corny Point and The Pines stopping at beaches and bays and lookouts along the way. At one lookout over a beautiful bay, we saw a pod of about 12 dolphins surfing in on th waves. We watched as they played in the shallower water after that for quite a while before moving on. We were able to drive a lot of the way along the coastal roads in 4WD so it was a great afternoon out.
Tomorrow I pick up my two rabbits on our way to Nuriootpa-I don't think I'll sleep with the excitement of it!
