Roads Less Travelled

We set up camp in the West Beach big four which is close to the airport to make it easy for when we place the van and car into storage. The camp site here is enormous and nicely situated on the edge of the beach. It is also a short distance to Glenelg and to…

The roads once more took us through some of the suburbs of Adelaide. We arrived early and managed to get into the park, however they had allocated us a terribly odd spot which would have been difficult to level the van on. So with a bit of prodding from Elaine they gave us a tour…

We actually moved campsites after a couple of days and ended up with a view of the ocean and the sunsets which was really nice. The weather improved slightly and we were able to do some lovely walks on the beach as well as around the local town. We walked into Noarlunga and drove into…

A quick dash to the Beerenberg Strawberry farm to collect a few more delicious goodies before hitching up and heading for the coast. Its a little disjointed right now as we juggle accommodation around school holidays. Everything is currently 30% more expensive because of the holidays. Wouldn’t normally hang around town during holidays. We would…

While in Hahndorf we had the stove recall done and now we can finally use all the burners. We visited the surrounding towns of Mount Barker, did the river drive to Sterling and of course we did plenty of wandering around town in and out of the local shops. Gave wine tasting a break in…

We packed up and managed to leave camp quite early for a change. On our way to Hahndorf we detoured to Seppeltsfield Winery but as it was only 9am everything was closed. We knew it would be but we wanted to see it as it is quite historic as well. Over the last 100 years…

It took us most part of the day to travel the 170km from Rapid Bay to Tanunda with stops all along Route 31 tourist drive. It was the only place we could get a booking over the easter weekend. So we arrived and squeezed onto a spot that only just housed our van. We do…

Arrived at Cape Jervis later morning and set up in this very basic camp site. We had power and water on a green grassy but sloping spot. All good once set up. Went for a walk to the ferry station which services Kangaroo Island and then walked across to the new light house which is…
