The Flinders Ranges & Port Augusta...and photos

This is a cast model of the largest great White caught with a rod and reel off the S.A town of Streaky Bay. This fella was 5m long and weighed 1540kg. He had a gob that would take half a man in a bight.This is certainly not the biggest pointer observed, but big enough to gain respect of all water lovers and conservationists. Here I am, as a watersports person, sharing the love, hoping to get some good shark Karma.







The Great Australian Bight- it's as though the land just suddenly stops, and drops away to the roaring ocean. Very impressive spot and the highlight of the Nullarbor journey









Here is the beach where we went swimming yesterday at Coffin Bay NP, on the Eyre Peninsula...beautiful!











Lovely Esperance! A wonderful swimming spot..the sheltered lagoon was beautiful and devoid of Great Whites

We had another big, but rewarding day today. We travelled about 150kms to the Flinders Ranges NP and hiked up a mountain to an elevation of about 1000 metres-- awesome, rugged scenery! Luckily a cool change came in overnight and it was only 32 today! But cloudy, so that helped us from baking on our rather strenuous climb. We saw lots of kangaroos and wallabies...some unusual yellow-footed rock wallabies-very cute! Also lots of different lizards, wrens and ring-neck parrots.

We head off tomorrow- to Adelaide.

Love E&A xx
