Streaky Bay

We left Port Lincoln and started heading across South Australia towards Western Australia. Tomorrow we hit the Nullarbor.  I am so looking forward to that part of our trip. Mal has crossed it once before in 1976, but it is all new for me. Mid morning we arrived at Elliston….”The Australian Salmon Capital”….a tiny fishing village on a small bay overlooking the ocean. There was wilderness before and after Elliston, although we stopped at a roadside “help yourself” store selling beautiful wood fired oven baked bread. Of course we had to try some….it did not disappoint us!!!

Our next stop was Streaky Bay….a beautiful spot overlooking Streaky Bay and  the Southern Ocean. I was intrigued by the fact that most of the town was owned by a “Beck”. I wonder if our daughter Rebecca (Beck) has won lotto and not told us ?????

That night we slept on the side of the road. Very relaxing. You will see a picture below of our amazing sunset. All good, except I can’t understand why some travelers have to throw rubbish. It was everywhere at this stop. So lazy !!!

The historic Elliston Jetty...yes, there are lots of jettys in South Australia
Our excellent bread roadside store in the middle of no where.

I won't bore you with any more !!!We went to sleep with this
