24/02/12 Rob & Laurel arrived excited & tired after travelling from Queensland to spend the next 4 weeks with us. Two nights in Port Broughton at 40 degrees was all we needed to get out of there and head to the Eyre Peninsular. Here we were, driving along the long straight blistering roads, with a constant mirage of water always 500metres ahead of us, listening to the harmonies of Juzzy Smith and his harmonica. We set up camp at Fitzgerald Bay about 30klms north of Whyalla, where Mike can launch the boat & anchor out from our caravan.
27/02/12 Blue crabs are plentiful and Jade caught some King George whiting. We had a beautiful feed of crab and fish for dinner. They didn't disappoint our taste buds.
Funny – 9.00pm, Mike pulled out our powerful spot light to show how strong it was and pointed to the tinny, but there was no tinny. Next second, Mike is bolting down to the waters edge, veering to the left, spots his boat flying along with the fast current. Up to chest height he drags the boat in and we all have to help pull it up to safe ground. Moral of the story – The women is always right!
