Day 12 & 13 : Seacliff Monday 21st February: Day 12 Today’s travel from kangaroo Island to Seacliff was rather uneventful. We did notice though the limestone topography extended well up into this part of South Australia and into the Langhorne Creek wine region so we decided then that this might be a new… More
Day 11: Our one full day on KI Sunday 20th February Sunrise down here isn’t until just before 7 am and so we were, indeed, able to see the beautiful early-morning sunrise colours directly from our bed. Mark didn’t go on a bike ride this morning because we had a long day of driving and… More
Day 10: Kangaroo Island Saturday 19th February There was the most beautiful sunrise this morning and we could view its early progress right from our bed. A glorious morning evolved with sunshine and no wind making ideal, and rather novel, conditions for Mark’s bike ride and for my walk. I headed north first off,… More
Day 9 Victor Harbour Friday 18th February It was a cool 16°, cloudy and a bit windy for our walk this morning. Quite a contrast from yesterday’s blue skies, warmth and sunshine. The drive to Victor harbour today was about 4 hours and so Mark opted to walk with me instead of taking his usual… More
Day 8: Robe Thursday 17th February The morning was cool and overcast as Mark set off for his morning bike ride and as I said off for my walk. Without a coastline or a river to walk along I chose to just meander through the streets of Penola. Penola is the home of Mary MacKillop… More
Day 7: Coonawarra Wednesday 16th February It was a cloudy morning for a last day in Port Fairy but we both walked out to the Lighthouse, one last time. There was one last breakfast looking out over the lovely gardens and river before setting off for the Coonawarra. We got away just before 10 am… More
Day 6: Port Fairy Rest Day Tuesday 15th February It was a beautiful morning as Mark set out on his first ride around Port Fairy and I ventured out for my walk. We’ve been lucky with the weather so far; no rain and lots of sunshine albeit with fair bit of wind thrown in.… More
Monday 14th: Port Fairy There was some morning cloud which soon cleared paving the way for a nice ride for Mark and a nice walk for me. I found the access to coast path and took this out to southern Port Campbell headland which offers some decent views back up the coast towards the 12… More
Day 4: Sunday 13th February Sunday was a much warmer and sunnier day but, also, much windier. Mark did get out for a bike ride and I did get out for a walk but it was so windy I couldn’t walk out along the harbour breakwater. We packed up and got away from the house… More
Day 3: One full day in Apollo Bay Saturday 12th February It was a cool and rather windy start to the day and so Mark ditched his plan for a bike ride. Instead, we walked along the beach and up to the small harbour and fish co-op area and wound our way back through town… More
