Portland to Adelaide

Woke to a much calmer morning. The rain had finally stopped after 11/2 days. We set off early and had a smooth ride to Mt Gambier. Lots of pine forests along the way but were lucky to not have any log trucks going our way. Mt Gambier was a pretty little town with the town developed right up to the Blue Lake.

 It was a cloudy day so the colour blue wasn't very vivid.

The road on took in many very small seaside towns. Roads very flat. We eventually followed a waterway called the Coorong all the way to Tailem Bend. Plenty of flocks of pelicans flying along.

Also passed through Kingston S.E. place where the famous Rock Lobster is farmed.

Decided to keep on going to Adelaide. The drive was very easy today. Found the caravan park easily. We have a little brook running behind us.
Will be nice to explore tomorrow.
