On arrival at Port Lincoln we went straight to car wash and removed dust and grime from car & van.We were happy to see our van shining again looked new.
Port Lincoln is the home town of the owners of one of Australia's famous race horse MAKYBE DIVA and the town has a statue of her on the town foreshore.
We stayed in van park,girls did washing wind blowing fierce again(or should I say still) today,line spinning fast clothes will dry quickly Janice said if we can keep them on the line.
Paul thinks the Patrol has a clutch problem,so he takes it to mechanic,bad news clutch needs replacing ok to drive but not towing,he makes arrangements to have it fixed,parts have to be ordered in looks like we be here a week.
The news on Paul's car not good when the parts arrive the car will be in workshop 3/4 days,these things happen but today is FRIDAY 13th.
We decide to move from van park to Port Lincoln National Park hopefully to an area protected from wind.
Sunday 15/1/12 We head off early to look for campsites for the next week and find a place that has views and is protected from most of the wind looks good to us.
Took a drive out to Memory Cove,named after 6 sailors from Matthew Flinders boat who came ashore there looking for water but unfortunately drowned.
This yacht or sloop or whatever sailed in while we had lunch here,to envy of us all.Still cannot be to jealous because I couldn't sail it anyway.
Left Memory Cove and back to van park road very rough making travel slow we decide to pack up tonight and go to Park in the morning Monday 16/1/12
