Day 34 (4/10 Monday) – Mount Remarkable to Port Lincoln

Bit of a driving day today, although by the time we packed up, stopped off in Port Augusta for groceries and fuel and got going, it was midday! Quite flat countryside heading down into the Eyre Peninsula and lots of red dust. Looked like a dust storm had come through as we left, as there was a dusty red haze over the hills. Whyalla for lunch and a glimpse of kite surfers off the foreshore. Amazing turquoise coloured water – obviously quite shallow for quite a long way out and very few waves despite the strong winds – and kite surfers zipping rapidly up and down.
Passed through a few small coastal towns on the way south but decided to make for Port Lincoln for the night. Not really sure where to go from there, or how long to spend doing it. Holed up for the night at Port Lincoln Tourist Park. Nice enough caravan park and good clean amenities, but small sites that would put you right on top of your neighbours in peak times. Not sure how long we’ll stay here.
