Guess which tin arse won $250 on the pokies at Cowell pub?

Like the cat that swallowed the canary.



Heading north now to Cowell on the east coast of the Eyre Peninsula, passing through Tumby Bay and Port Neil.

Some pics  as we passed through.







For the boating enthusiast, some pics from the Port Lincoln Maritime Museum.












 Caravan park at Port Lincoln.



Moving across to Port Lincoln a much bigger town than we have visited for a while, yet another fisherman's paradise.





Moving on southward down to Coffin Bay.
As usual top notch launch facilities.

 Oyster farm boat coming in.







Next overnight stop after Ceduna was Venus Bay,ie the SA version not Vic. Another delightful sheltered foreshore campsite.


 I guess if your hungry enough then you cn call it an emergency.

We spent 3 days looking around Ceduna.




Bulk ship loading facilities at Thevenard just out of Ceduna, loading grain and gypsum.



 Leaving Ceduna behind we headed south down the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula. 
This side of the peninsula is series of beautiful, sheltered bays one after the other. Smoky Bay, Streaky Bay, Sceale Bay, Elliston, Venus Bay and quite a few more ending at Coffin Bay.
Stopping at Streaky Bay for lunch then did a couple of loop tourist drives and had a look at the back beach side of some of the bays.







Walking down to a place called the Whistling Blowholes.
