The Granites 22 March 2007

After a late start we visited The Coorong Camp, an Aboriginal Cultural Centre that had an interesting display of local artefacts and history of the local Aboriginal community. A local elder (our age!) explained the concept of the centre. It was good to see a successful project after so many disasters. Then drove down the coast and stopped at a campsite called The Granites, right on the water near Kingston SE. There are a number of granite outcrops in the water and over 1,000s of years they have been rounded smooth, so that they look like stranded whales. In the evening we went for a walk along the beach and watched the sunset. This was one of those special stops right on the beach edge listening to the waves. It had been a very hot day and we welcomed the balmy evening with gathering dark clouds.
