We moved from Coffin Bay Port Lincoln today, about 40 km. before we left I managed to get a photo of the oyster beds as the tide was out.


We've done a bit of shopping for fruit and veggies and bought some lovely whiting fillets here. DH wasn't impressed as he is used to catching them but they looked lovely.

This is the marina here.

A couple of the boats in at the marina.

The view we have of Boston Bay from our van. At the moment we are sitting out under the awning having a drink.

Sounds nice Cookie, love to be sitting there having a drink with you.  Hopefully it's as nice a day over there as it is in Adelaide today.

I'm having a wine with you CP!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

You're bringing back lovely memories cookie. I was born in port Lincoln, and my auntie had a "shack" at coffin bay. If you go to baker's delight in Lincoln & see a big guy called Tony, say hi from me - he's my cousin!

We're in Whyalla now for a couple of sleeps. We had a lovely drive up from Port Lincoln. Called in at Tumby Bay, Port Neil and had lunch and bought some oysters in Cowell. I tried an oyster there and although I still didn't like it, the flavour was incredible. We had,oysters kilpatrick with the ones we bought and they were lovely.

A nice view along the road today.

The oysters.

Cooked this time.
