Hi everyone
Sorry for the delay in updating this but I am so relaxed I forget all about time.
I went to Streaky Bay and it was a great spot. The Caravan Park was on the foreshore and it was lovely seeing the pelicans and seagulls just wandering around. Because it is a bay the water was quite calm and crystal clear as it was at Coffin Bay. I stayed there for 3 nights and had 2 beautiful days out of the 3. I did manage to take the scooter out for a run and went to Bauer Point which was 20kms of DIRT road, from the park and then I had to get back. The road was pretty good so the scooter didn't suffer.
When I arrived there ( at the park ) I met Rochelle and Brad who I first met at Port Lincoln. It was like a mini reunion and it was great to see a familiar face. Kaiser and Chardy were happy to see Dudley and Mollie too. They had been there for a week and were leaving the next day.
The next day, who do you think pulled in, in their caravan? Yes Leanne and Bruce ( from Port Lincoln). Talk about old home week!! They were staying for a few days and had plans to swim with the seals and Dolphins at Baird Bay.
Next was Penong, via Ceduna. I got diesel at Ceduna because it was quite cheap compared with where I had been. I also filled the gerry cans - just in case. Ceduna is a picturesque town and there were quite a few Aboriginees.
Penong is just a town, nothing there except the Caravan Park and it was cheap - $18. Rochelle and Brad were also there and had been for 2 days and Brad had been fishing - 27kms away. He didn't have much luck the first day but managed to catch some the day I was there. We ended up having dinner ( fish of course ) together which was great.
We both left the next morning for Eucla and the crossing of the Nullarbor. The trip was uneventful and there isn't much atbEucla.
I left, this morning, for Norseman and did plan to stay in a free parking area but whenever I arrived at one there was noone else there so didn't feel comfortable being the first. I arrived at Norseman ( which was a 700km trip ) and I'm staying for 2 nites. It is an expensive park $33 per nite but hey who cares!!
Here are some photos

That's it. Hope everyone is well and happy
