Port Neil
As you can see the day
started off well with the caravan door giving Trev and a neighbour
lots of grief. Finally a decision was made to leave broken door as it
is and find an expert somewhere on our travels.
Then a perceived problem
with the car turned out to be a false alarm with a mechanic saying “
I can't see any oil leaks, so don't worry about it Mate, she'll be
right”. Fortunately we had no further problems so hope he's right.
We went to Port Neil
which was closed as are many of the small towns and settlements in
this area at this time of year. There is a lovely park on the
foreshore with a beautiful newly planted garden. We sat in the sun
and had our picnic there looking over the water. We drove along the
“scenic drive” which only took a few minutes and ended up at the
Roger Cox lookout which did give spectacular views of the area.

We drove back to Tumby on
back roads, passing through Ungarra, Lipson and picturesque farmland.
We sat in the late afternoon sun before the cold drove us into the
heated caravan.
