Thierings on Tour

With the weather predicted to be nicer in Port Pirie than our next destination we decided to base ourselves here for an extra night, which also meant one less pack down & set up – winning!

While I had some morning meetings Chris took the girls to the park, but it sounded like Scarly had a big fall and some bad grazes 😦 poor darling!

There was some of the usual boring activities thrown in like homework, washing, but we tried to balance it out with playground fun and walks later.

We also noticed there was a sushi place in town and finally one that had raw salmon and avocado rolls, so we were onto a winner and had some happy snobs, I mean girls! It’s funny how we’ve stumbled across a few sushi places along the way, but they’ve only had smoked salmon or no salmon at all and so it’s been a no deal for our three.

We went to check out the ANZAC museum, which was actually at the back of the local RSL club but had so much incredible memorabilia. There were personal letters, photos, artifacts and for our aviation geek – a decommissioned helicopter. Chris got plenty of ideas to pass on to work about possible mods, ha ha.

We drove past at least three converted churches in town, my favourite being the Church of Fish & Chips.
On our way back we grabbed the click & collect food order and I laughed out loud when I saw what size cereal box I had accidentally ordered 😂 I think we will be eating this until the end of the trip!

Back at camp it was an easy dinner and early bed as we had a big day of driving tomorrow. The night sky over the port looked very nice.
