Thierings on Tour

The weather was back to its old tricks in the morning with drizzle and a wind that was blowing enough to make pack up unpleasant. We headed off and made a stop in Port Lincoln for brekkie at a French croissanterie! The girls felt all fancy drinking their babycinos and my croque madame was absolutely divine – yum!

We did a quick top up shop and I found the girls practicing their marching watching themselves in the mirror reflection. Honestly it’s been hilarious getting an insight into the games they play and how their imagination works. 

There was a really good playground by the water, but just as we got there it absolutely bucketed down. We managed to run back to the car without getting too wet and headed out north along the Eyre peninsula.

We were hoping that Cowell would be a bit sunnier as it has an amazing free splash park, but it wasn’t to be with yet more rain following us.

When Chris stopped to check the car and van on one of his routine inspections, I couldn’t help but laugh that it was right next to the Poverty Bay turnoff – sums up the bank balance towards the end of this trip, ha!

In the end we made Whyalla our stop for the night as there was a lot of interesting things to do in town tomorrow, so we thought it would be a good base. The girls got to enjoy a playground and giant bouncy pillow as well as some outdoor games before the wind got too crazy again.
