202 On Tour

Hello Guvna!

We’ve found a happy routine, alarm at 7 am, I go for a quick walk while Mum has a shower. Then shower for me, pack the car and leave around 8.30 am. Find something light for breakfast , and a decaf coffee for Mum and head up out.

Stop at planned (and unplanned 😉😁) places for a couple of hours. Sometimes we even get out of the car!  Find something light for lunch.

Some more planned (and unplanned) stops until we get to the nights accommodation between 5 and 6pm.

Unload the car, load tomorrow’s drinks into the fridge, maybe catch the news and see what options we have for dinner. Dinner😁

After dinner, some TV and write up the days photo highlights. Generally asleep by 10.30pm😃

May have found the best Strawberry donut of the trip. Tumby Bay Bakery
One of many murals in Tumby Bay, this one looked new AND has a motorcycle in it
Another Black Stump. Note that this is a fireproof replacement for the OG one that burnt to nothing in a bushfire…
Stopped at about 10 Historical Markers today, this made the faves cut
Silos dominate the Winter Hill lookout at Port Lincoln. Binoculars reveal multiple nets which i can only assume were Tuna related
Appreciated the effort this bloke put into colour coordinating not just the rear wheels, but also the tie downs on his ex Melbourne Taxi round Australia camper van
Road-train country, Port Lincoln Grain Export Terminal
Some well fed pelicans at Port Lincoln Marina
Nice arid garden in Port Lincoln
Port Lincoln in one pic, Tuna fishing with the grain export terminal in the background. And yes. I know they fish for plenty of other seafood 😉
Oysters and prawns for lunch in Coffin Bay
Waves a crashing at Locks Well
Couple of fellas fishing off the beach
Panoramic shot!
Found a shortcut from Murphys Haystacks into Streaky Bay
My favourite small section of the wraparound mural at Elliston
Got into Streaky Bay in time for a sunset walk on the jetty
And a mural with a sidecar to wrap the day up
But then i saw this lLexus turn into the pub carpark, In chatting with the driver we found out that the SA Governor is touring the Eyre Peninsula.

On entering the pub bistro we saw a table for 8 with “Governor” scribbled on the plastic reserved sign. Low key, I like it. Grabbed the sneaky selfie on the way out😁😁
