We weren’t
in too big a hurry to leave this morning as we only had 46kms to go to get to
Port Lincoln.
As it was Ian’s birthday today, he was also
receiving lots of birthday calls from back home. Kathy rang through and booked a couple of
sites for us at the Port Lincoln Tourist Park, a great caravan park right on
Boston Bay in Port Lincoln.

Ian and
Kathy were pretty happy to have a chilled out day today to celebrate Ian’s
birthday. The weather still wasn’t kind… Still cold windy and a little
drizzly. It was not quite as wet as the
previous day, but still quite miserable.

| Out for a birthday lunch at the Marina Hotel in Port Lincoln |
 |
| Ian, Kathy and I all had a seafood basket.... freshest seafood ever.... |
 |
| Steve had the garlic prawns |

We decided
to go out for lunch for Ian’s birthday and then to a movie in the evening… We ended up at the Marina Hotel which was situated
right on the water. It was a great place
and the food was very good. Quite
reasonably priced and very fresh…
We all
enjoyed seafood for lunch. I mean when
you are on the Seafood Trail in South Australia, you need to enjoy seafood….
We had a
leisurely lunch and spent a couple of hours just sitting around chatting. We did go for a nice walk around the
balconies before leaving…
After lunch
we went for a drive into Port Lincoln to get our bearings in this new town…. We
also stopped at Woolworths to do a grocery shop as we needed to stock up on
food as this was the first big supermarket we had come across since leaving
Kalgoorlie in WA..

By the time
we got home and unloaded and packed our groceries, we had about 30 minutes to
spare before we were due to take off and head into the Cinema in Port Lincoln
to go to the movies. We went and saw “Wonder”. What a great movie…

We ended the
day by going back to Ian and Kathy’s for a hot drink and some birthday
cake. It really has been a lovely
relaxed day… Tomorrow we will do some exploring around Port Lincoln.
