Streaky Bay

                                            The views around Streaky Bay.


 We met this friendly white pointer shark at the local Shell servo. It was in the book we brought with us called "Are we there yet?" about a family that travels around Australia so we just had to take photos with it.

 The caravan park was on the foreshore. We had a site right next to my Dad and Daph.

                       Dad and Daphne next to their Eco Tourer caravan.
 We enjoyed our last night at Streaky Bay at the local pub which had nice food and a great view.

 Ben with his girlfriend Ella who was traveling with her 2 brothers and parents for over a year. We met them at Kalgoorlie and kept bumping into them across the Nullarbor, Streaky Bay then Port Lincoln. Her eldest brother, Riley, became good friends with Jake as they were similar ages and her youngest brother, Cooper, who was 4 yrs old wanted Liam to play with him. It was sad for all when they took off on a different route to us.
 When we left SB we headed to Murphy's Haystacks which is on the way to Port Lincoln. It was also in the book so we made sure we went there. They are interesting rock formations which were thought to be a good omen for growing good hay in the fields surrounding it which belonged to Mr Murphy.



We had  a very relaxing week at SB, enjoyed spending time with Dad and Daphne and headed down to Port Lincoln for the final stretch of our trip.
