Eyres Water Hole (Streaky Bay) 15 February 2007

Up early and drove a very short distance to Streaky Bay, a refreshing little town, orientated to the sea. Can’t tell how we do it, but it was very pleasant due to a lovely cool breeze. Caught up with our food shopping and found another Op Shop for Heather.
After lunch we explored some wonderful wild coastal areas in the car at Point Westall. The coast always surprises us producing something new when we think we have seen it all. A thousand more photos! Encountered a rough long road back to town, via some dry country with the beginnings of a new locality, called Fisherman’s Paradise, where a farmer has divided some arid farmland into a few blocks – don’t know where the water will come from!
Back in town and home again in the motorhome, we enjoyed the atmosphere of the water and the shady park, relaxing and staying until about 7pm. We then drove a few kms out of town to a rest area at the historic site of a water hole that John Eyre had used when exploring the peninsula.
