Passing through Ceduna with no dramas we popped into the Visitor Information Centre to find out what we could about South Australia.... where to go, what to do, learned that they did not put as much effort into their tourism brochures as WA does, nevertheless it was helpful.
Continuing on the Flinders Highway down the Eyre Peninsular to a little place called Haslam -coastal, developed by locals, $5 per night, honesty system, toilets up at the waters edge, rubbish bins and drinking water.
As we settled down some other travellers arrived with whom we had spent time elsewhere, so we had a 5 o'clock session - spent 2 pleasant nights there.
On the next leg we called in to several overnighting spots in the Camp 6 book, none of them were up to scratch, yet asked for fees, till we discovered Point Drummond.
Oh my! situated at a the top of a cliff about 150 feet above sea level with a view to die for ! We felt very special as we ate our dozen oysters kilpatrick each, for entree that evening being entertained by the local plovers playing with the thermal updraughts.
We were heading for Coffin Bay, but decided to go the extra klms to Port Lincoln as very hot weather was forecast and there we would have power for the air conditioner if we needed.
