Camping on the Murray......

A picturesque lookout along The Murray not far from Swan Reach.....
....where we camped for the night.....
.....and made a few friends like this little fella!
We couldn't believe our eyes when we spied this kangaroo living on a boat along the River.  You can just see him sitting at the front of the boat.  His kind owner told us he was 13 and had always been blind but had no trouble getting around on the boat.

The Mighty Murray in Mannum....

The lights of Port Pirie at night.
Driving through the countryside at this time of year is beautiful.  The canola is so vivid in color.
The banks of the Murray River is a welcome sight.  We look forward to following its twists and turns and hopefully catch a few cod and yellowbelly along the way!
As you can see the Murray is a huge river in SA.

King George Whiting!

How's this for a nice King George whiting?
We've caught quite a few King George Whiting along with flathead and squid while fishing in Cowell (on the Eyre Peninsula) this week.  This is our catch from today in just a few hours!  
Tac took a bit of a rest on the mosaic couch on a day trip to Port Lincoln.
We stopped at Arno Bay along the way another pretty coastal town.

Sculptures on the cliff...

It was an interesting coastal drive near Elliston with some great sculptures.....
......sitting on the cliff edges.
This fantastic old pub is virtually next door to the caravan park in Cowell.  Might have to see if the beer is cold!!
