Another early start with more miles to cover. The guys at the NSW/SA border quarantine station took most of our fruit and vegies as we headed for Streaky Bay. Had to stop in Port Augusta to get the trailer plug fixed on the way- not the most beautiful of towns, but Streaky Bay made the trip worthwhile.
Streaky Bay was beautiful. We camped by the sea and went swimming at the jetty where we also saw a big, fat seal and many other amazing creatures. We had lunch at a lovely café where we tried abalone (which I thought tasted like bacon) and fresh oysters. It was sensational. We went for a ride around town and Dad and Finlay found a skate park while the girls checked out the local shopping scene. For dinner we had King George Whiting and mussels (locally harvested).
I have to agree, Port Augusta is not the nicest place to visit. It makes you really appreciate living where you do! I had never seen a fruit fly before, I didn't realise they were so small.
