Iron Knob to Walkers Rocks SA

A bit of a slow start this morning as we had look around the town of Iron Knob, the mines must be working again as there is more life in the place than when we were here last. Then on to Kimba, they say it’s the centre of Australia.  Great to see that there is painted silos there now. Another one for my collection.  From Kimba it was westward to Kyancutta. where we took the newly formed and bitumen road south to  Ellison on the coast. South Australia is doing so many improvements to catch the tourists eye and dollar. Many places we went to 10yrs ago were barely accessible, with free camps and no facilities. We’ve seen a big change this trip. Next a look around doing the coastal drive, many viewpoints, also sculptures around the headland. Then it was time to find a camp spot for the night.  Still on the Flinders Hwy and not much further is Walkers Rocks. We’ve stayed here before and this little hideaway is magic. Miles of clean white sandhills and beach, it’s very protected, so no wind and no flies After setting up, we went for a walk along the beach. I ended up burning our dinner, as I was too busy taking photos of the sunset. Even the smell of burning frittata, couldn’t spoil this place. A game of scrabble after dinner, Chris won.!
