Monday 4th April (Glimpses of the Sea – Penong)



Once again another glorious day to continue our journey towards Penong.  Last nights camp was nice and quiet and during the night I opened the window to take in the magnificent clear star filled sky.  Stunning, so many stars and it felt as if you could just reach out and touch them. Where we camped there were no trees so the landscape was typical of the Nullabor, just little shrubs and nothing the block the view, we were also only 800 metres from the cliffs down to the sea so we could hear the roaring of the waves during the night. Not even windy so an added bonus.  Morning tea at Nullabor where we caught up on some phone calls and then on towards Penong where we are hoping to get down to the water at Point Sinclair. There is a jetty at Point Sinclair and 22kms of dirt road to get there and when we were there in 2009 you could get a caravan right down to the waters edge. Would have been a stunning place to stay BUT we have been advised by the locals that the road is very, very corrugated so it is into the Penong Caravan Park for us for 2 nights. As we passed through Nundroo I took a couple of pictures and put them on Facebook just to make Maree feel all warm & fuzzy.... We are booked into Streaky Bay Wednesday & Thursday nights so we can go straight there from Penong.  I think the guys may try a bit of fishing on Tuesday down at Point Sinclair, Barry tried earlier tonight but no luck.
