Took a drive to Walkers Rock, 13kms west of Elliston. It is known for fishing (surprise), swimming and beach driving which we had to do. After letting the tyre pressure down we found a quiet spot and just relaxed. John tried balloon fishing without any joy (he is convinced there are no fish in the Indian or Southern oceans!) The water looked great for swimming but the water was too cold for us to venture into. Coco and I went for a long long walk and it was just beautiful, the sand was perfect for walking on, firm underfoot even in the shallow water. As usual the southerly breeze came in about lunchtime and we left to have lunch at home. News update – John is diving with sharks on Sunday at Port Lincoln (its OK he will be in a cage) and I’m keen to swim with the sea lions if weather permits.
Some photos of Elliston township. There are some interesting murals on a couple of the buildings in town with so much detail – have a look on slideshow at full screen size to appreciate the artwork.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteWhat is the name of the Caravan park that you are in? There seem to be a few in the area. Nice pictures. Take care on Sunday and maybe some sea-sick pills!
Dad
Not hard to find a place on the beach all to yourselves!! Tough life!!
ReplyDeleteHi Dennis, there are only two caravan parks in Elliston. We are at Elliston Caravan Park. Yes John has the travelcalm ready to go. Looks like I might have to wait until Port Philip to do the sealion swim - Sunday is going to be 42 and too hot to leave Coco alone in van and rain is forecast early in the week down to 25!
