We crossed the Nullarbor without further incident and on clearing the quarantine station at Ceduna, we pulled straight into The Oyster Bar. At $7 a dozen for fresh oysters, Geoff couldn't help but get a couple of dozen, he loves his Oysters Kilpatrick, not my thing; yuk.
We stayed at Ceduna until Friday so that Terry could get his trailer fixed properly and it gave us girls a chance to catch up on shopping and laundry. We also found a couple of op shops and I managed to score a pair of Jag jeans for $2 and a couple of jumpers for Erin as she's grown so much since last winter. We stayed at the little A1 caravan park in town for $18 a night which is almost unheard of these days, especially for three people.
For the last week, we have been camped at Haslam where the guys have been squidding daily. I even went out one day in the pouring rain and caught two, they didn't seem to bite as much when the weather was clear. Erin fished also and caught a little Leather Jacket, good for bait. Terry caught a King George Whiting and it tasted great so I've put my order in with Geoff to catch some more of them.
The local farmers had oysters for $5 a dozen so we had no end of seafood available.
The weather has been pretty horrible with wet mornings and cold windy days but it hasn't got us down at all. We just don our beanies and (especially in my case) many layers of clothes and go out fishing and walking along the beaches. The girls have been busy exploring and getting fresh air and are finally spending less time on their DS's.
Shelley and Terry are getting the hang of bush camping, still yet to talk Shelley out of TV of a night – though we did manage to coax her out for a couple of nights around the campfire; maybe if it was a bit warmer of a night it would be easier.
