Here is the Blog competition - Can anyone identify this tree. It is in the park at Ceduna and is fantastic - I want one LOL. prize is a good bottle of SA Red

PS. Ron is temporarily out of action post his official reaching retirement age - or was it the wine ????

Hello from "Streaky bay" and so far there's been no streaking anywhere. Pic above is Ron at Murphy's Haystack about 50klms of dirt from here. Temp is 33 and we are camped on the shore of the bay. Heading to Ceduna on Tuesday and from there we will start our trip home.

Havent killed him yet but its been close a couple of times LOL.

Now I guess I should tell some home truths. First off I should tell you that the first camping trip was not all that hard. LOL We spent two nights out under the stars and then fled to the Mildura Grand for two nights which of course meant we went to Stephano's for dinner, life's tough LOL. Dinner was - A vegie pastry (Heaven), next cheese souffle (to die for), Quail Ravoli (Hmmmmm), Baked Snapper (Yum), Comfit of Duck (mmmmmmmm) and finished off with Creme Carmel (there goes the diet) with Blood Oranges all accompanied with great wines from the local area.

The pics above were taken yesterday here at the Coorong, Ron in the lake outside "Miss Guided" and me at a very dry salt lake.

I dont think I need to add to this

Cape Jaffa is literally in the middle of nowhere between Robe and Kingston on the SA coast, but is a wonderful place to visit. Small is an understatement, it has 5 light poles , one caravan park ,four Lobster stores, 40 lobster boats and an enormous pier and can be seen in 5 minutes. But, the beaches are wonderful, huge stringrays cruise through the water, squid and thousands of fist around the pier.

The pic of madonna and child was on the way to Cape Jaffa.

Well here we are on our way. Most said we wouldn't make it in the camper but it has proved to be lots of fun. We have named her "Miss Guided" as I am sure that is exactly what she will do to us.

We have been in Warnambool for 4 nights and apart from the bloody screaming rug rat two doors down things have been going great guns. We have also added to the culture by purchasing two painting at a special exhibition at the local Art Gallery, the collection continues.

Yesterday we headed off to Port Fairy ( ok it was a family thing LOL) and took a boat cruise out into the harbour. The weather was fantastic, the water clean and clear and the local hospitality was wonderful. Tonight will be our first dinner out as we move on to Cape Jaffa tomorrow. Stand by for more updates.
