To Clare



This is were a Bakery suppose to be in Wirrabara, my first stop, but it has moved 9 km further south



Leaving Wirrabara with strict instruction from Werner how far and where to stop



And here I'm at the new place at Stone Hut



All that yummy food. I was good but Werner wasn't



See if you can see Werner



Here he comes down the hill



And it looks like he is glad to see me to refill his water bottle after the hills and the Pie

One of a few River banks



Just shows you how big the dry river bed's are







Werner is showing off his balance on the branch



And I'm more than happy just to sit on it



View from the look out we climbed today

Standing in a river bed.I said to Werner we should camp in it, but Werner reckon it is too dangerous, we might have a flash flood. Ha ha ha

Flinders Ranges take 1



Looking across Spencer Gulf towards the Flinders Ranges where we will be heading


After a short side trip heading back to the main road



Fly's are getting a bit much for me



Werner is checking out the size of Eucalyptus



Still nice flowers to be found if you look really hard



Have to wait again for Werner as he is dragging his feet and taking photos



The scenery was beautiful
