I'm loaded to the gunwales, we leave tomorrow morning for the Grampians then onto Coffin Bay. Weather is looking pretty dodgy at the moment, but thats all part of the experience. I'll post pics as 3G allows.

Here's a few of the truck loaded fully loaded ready to go.

Just got back from the trip.

Grampians was muddy, a thick orange clay that all most sent me sliding off the track a few times, they had heaps of rain the nights before we arrived resulting in a lot of the roads blocked.

We manage to find a nice grassed camp site, with plenty of wildlife including a nice size Stag that came wandering out of the bush while I was cooking dinner.

Spent a couple of days here teaching the Mrs how to ride a motorbike.

We stopped off in Adelaide, then continued on to Port Lincoln. Stayed a few nights in luxury then went to Coffin Bay NP.

At Coffin Bay the weather was a bit hit and miss, mostly over cast and windy. Didn't take as many photo's as we should have, but when the sun did come out it showed some amazing blue colored bays.


We came home via Renmark, Mildura, bedingo, and enjoyed plowing through a mass of locusts.
