Leaving Yumburra Park , we head back to the highway at Yaninee , a small site with grain silo's and some houses , onwards to Ceduna . As we continued , the ground was gradually turning green with grass appearing in some of last seasons wheat fields . Canola was also resprouting and flowering .
Here's some of the green .
We arrived at Ceduna around lunchtime , so parked out beside the bay & jetty . I went for a stroll in the wind as lunch was prepared . It was one of those days when Lyn decided it would be easier for me to go by myself . As I walked the wind was gaining strength and coming from the south , wasn't very warm !!
Making it out to the swimming enclosure was enlightening - I didn't notice the condition of the piers support structures - there are all steel/iron and some have no cross supports left at all !! the uprights also didn't look great either - wonder how long that will last before it's closed down .
making my way to the end of the pier , I took some shelter from the wind at the seat . The wind was cutting straight through me , so it was time to head back .
We still had plenty of time in the day , so after lunch we headed up to Penong , where we stayed for the night . Fuel was still plentiful , which made our decision to head back , much more reassured . Penong is famous for its windmills - they're across the road from the caravan park , so we had to go for a walk around . The wind from Ceduna was still there as well - hadn't warmed up at all .
