The sunshine created a reflection on Spencer Gulf and Port Augusta looked lovely too.
After Port Augusta we marvelled at the might of the Flinders Ranges as we approached Horricks Pass. They are so majestic. We nearly turned north to Hawker!!
Travelling through the little towns like Wilmington, Melrose, Laura and Murraytown, we realised we love these little communities and they all seem town proud. We ended up at Worlds End - a free camping spot out of Burra and possibly one of the best we've seen - so clean and tidy and spacious. It was rather cold this morning with a heavy frost - just as well we have heaters in our campers!
Today we had morning tea at Lock number 2 which was a lovely picnic spot and were very interested in the facts on display and enjoyed watching the pelicans.
I wonder who can guess where we were for our lunch?
The answer is Lake Cullulleraine! We've never discovered this pretty picnic spot before - it was very pleasant in the sun. Then we headed to Hattah Kulkyne National Park where we are now camped at Lake Mournpall. We were here some years ago and since then, the saplings have grown around the lake, quite spoiling the vista:
But we have had a beautiful sunset and it's so peaceful - only one other camper here.
Tonight we are sitting around the campfire on our last night of this trip - we've travelled about 10,500 kilometres and have seen so many wonderful things in this amazing country! We've been fortunate to have no mishaps and the cars and campers have behaved beautifully. Mind you, there's a fair bit of cleaning ahead for us as that red dust seems to get in everywhere! I believe you never look back except to remember great times, so looking forward, we'll catch up with all family and friends, get settled into our homes again and no doubt get very used to the comforts of home very quickly! So the happy travellers look forward to catching up and hope we don't bore you with our travel stories.
Till our next trip, we sign off ❌❌❌ from Darryl, Marg, Dennis and Tops
