Ceduna to location unknown

As we scratch around the cabin at some ungodly hour the decision has been made to alter our travel arrangements ,today we will head for a little known place called Lucky Bay where the touring party will board the  ferry to Wallaroo . As we check all the marine charts for wave heights and tidal flows i suggest sea sickness pills might be the order of the day for some . STOP PRESS the big Ford has just died from a mystery ailment ,with heads downs and bums up we are un able to locate the problem . 3hrs on every Tom Dick and Harry has probed the guts out of the Ford but no cure can be found,so the decision is made to leave our faithful friend in Ceduna. With our bums in a new set of wheels called a land cruiser we head out off town bound for home , today is day 21 of this fabulous trip so we have been lucky nothing happened at one of the many remote locations we visited . As we head back towards Port Auguasta passing through many small farming towns you can see life creeping back after the rain ,the paddocks are green and the crops are starting to come through ,the rain continues. The Agent has taken care of our last nights accomadation in the small country town called Clare , just another cabin and a long way out of town so taxi required to get a feed and return. Still raining so it's home to watch the footy on a very small TV. The excitement of a roast at Mary's is to much so it is early to bed for our big run home tomorrow..............WADDA
