Ceduna to Whyalla

Arrived in Ceduna we have been here before so we know where to go.Headed straight to the caravan park on the water front such a lovely spot nice and close to the pub who buy the way do great meals, and a good chance to catch up with the washing and shopping.One night in any caravan park is enough no matter how nice so have left there and going to the wombat rescue house to pat the wombats.

So soft and cuddly

One of the big girls she was so playful and now its sleepy time

It was such a treat to be able to cuddle a wombat we didn't realise how soft and playful they were.Leaving Ceduna and heading down the Eyre Peninsula went through Smoky bay and could not get over how many oyster farmers there are. We continued on to camp at a beautiful spot called Perlubie beach where we watched the sun set with a glass of wine.Next morning we went for a lovely beach walk and collected some nice shells.

Arriving at Venus bay found our mate was out of town so will catch up with him on our way back.Then on our way to Pildappa rock we past some really good farm land with good looking crops. Stoped and had a look at some rock called the haystacks quit amazing.Made camp at Pildappa rock and met some people from Geraldton (our home town) and a couple from Adelaide, we all had drinks together watching the sun set over the Gawler rangers, While we were sitting there Chris was bitten by some think an insect of some kind, but around midnight we were woken by Max (chrises husband) to say he was taking Chris to hospital as she was in really bad pain, he drove most of the night to find a hospital (Wudinna) and they treated her and said they thought it was a spider bite and now all is well.
