Arno Bay - Tumby Bay Jan 31- Feb 10.

The Eyre Penninsula is very surprising, It is alot more hillier and greener than we expected! We drove through some hills and found the little town of 'Cleve', it had a Mega OP shop/Christian bookstore we could have spent all day there! Then on to Arno Bay, our first patch of green grass at the Caravan park was lovely! We pitched the Annex properly for the first time to make extra 'room/s' which works great. Surprisingly though, living in the Caravan has been fairly roomy, i still have plenty of empty cupboard space and a quick 'clean and tidy' every day doesnt feel so burdensome for me at the moment as taking care of a whole house, so enjoying the living arrangements. The washing is also 'fun', its so nice walking into big clean laundry room with no 'piles of dirty washing building up, lol! kick back enjoy the view and read a book! the kids love helping too. Oops.. enough of the daily grind, onto the photos of our stay, mangroves, white sandy beaches , sandboarding, & Garry the goat!
Then through to Port Neill which is JUST GORGEOUS! and Tumby Bay...
 


Arno Bay


















                                                                    Riding to the Mangrove Trail and beach.
                                                                     Sandboarding @ Point Gibbon was SO fun!!








                                                                                Caleb has a new 'lawner' he mows everything!
                                                 These are the cutest little houses the girls made!! and decorated


                                                                        Garry the Goat was wondering around!



                                                                  Little town of Cleve

                                                     Always time for a concert!


   My 50c op shop find, its a perfect Post basket, the girls filled it up quickly with outgoing letters to family!
All three dress themselves everyday, the girls are quite fashionable , they love doing they're hair, adding bangles etc and finding  outfits , almost twins here!
This was Caleb passing time as everyone watched 'The sound of music'   ~ classic!

                                  
NO, this isn't our car!! but the same nissan and colour would you believe! These couple were from Adelaide pulling a BIG caravan so we feel assured about ours too now! They have been on the road just a few weeks travelling to W.A too, with Jimmy the dog. Oh P.s Comet has made plenty of Dog pals! and the kids have made endless friends and homeschooling kids already!
  A spot of painting. Kym is making home made pizza and cinnamon and butter scrolls! MMMMMMMMMMMM !!   gas oven is awesome!!
                                           My beautiful Girls! cant have enough pics of my precious children xxx
 This was Ruths Tea Party that we were invited too, how sweet!   We stopped at PORT NEILL which is a MAGIC PLACE!! and had tea and fairy bread.. oh and bumped into fellow  Owen-ites Ben Marshman (always a small world!) with daughters Edwina, Harriet and Beatrice.



                                                         






                                                         

                                                             Love my little 'home'

  There can never be enough riding in one day, always on the bikes, dollies usually out with their 'mums!'
                                                          

                                                                Thats one grubby happy boy!


                                                          
                                        Thanks for watching!  Next stop Port Lincoln ...~
