Ceduna – Port Augusta – Barossa Valley - Adelaide

We left Ceduna early and headed to Port Augusta which was our next stopover. We visited the Arid Gardens which was quite interesting. And the coffee and cake from the café was yum! At the campsite we were privileged enough to be parked next to a 1968 Bedford – that’s right; a 1968 Bedford!!! (Numerous men came by to drool over it). It was a strange little campsite; it was the first time that we had been locked in over night.

The next morning we headed to the Barossa Valley – quite a big wine region in South Australia. There was a Gourmet Weekend on whilst we were there so most of the wineries had put on entertainment and decorated the grounds. The weather was beautiful and the weekend was pretty fun!

After the weekend we made the short journey to Adelaide. We were staying within walking distance of the city so we had a quick wander around the city centre before driving miles to have the van serviced. We were in Adelaide for a few days so we got chance to visit the Market – which was huge and full of fresh local produce and various worldwide delights. We went to the Immigration Museum and the Natural History Museum and visited many shops trying to find a fan heater for the van, but unfortunately for us every shop had sold out!!
