Arrived in the Clare valley and stayed hitched on Thursday night so we could take of easier in the morning.
The office at the caravan park had local wine for sale so I purchased a bottle of Rose to have with our chicken for dinner. Yeehi!
FRIDAY 14TH APRIL
Arrived at Port Broughton around 10 am after driving over on the Goyder Highway named after George Goyder,an Englishman who came out to Australua and lived here.He surveyed SA,took him nearly 2 yrs and he travelled 80,000 miles on horseback!!!!
He basically let farmers know where to farm crops so anywhere north of the Goyder Line was not good and he proved his findings right as the farmers who headed north above his line only lasted a short time and abandoned their farm and homes,you see a lot of ruins! Uncanny knowledge because if you see SA from the air there is a distinct line where good vegetation exists for crops!
Sunset on Friday night!!!
Our view from the back of the van is straight out towards the bay before it goes out into tge major part of the Spencer Gulf! Weather for the weekend is forecast windy and cool so no fishing till Monday morn!
