Melbourne countryside looking more German than Australian I never seen it so green impressive looking Grampians National Park countryside seems littered with these round waterholes/lakes looking like big old mine shafts, but they all have different colours looking pretty out the window most passengers have drawn their shades and glued to the tv screens what a shame, if they look out they would see some wonderful natural scenery now that stretch looks familiar yes, from air I recognise this place two tone lake That’s the princess highway running along the Coorong in South Australia And that spot we went to when we did our Road Trip back in 2012 And that’s the spot we turned off to go and find Mr Percival ( Storm Boy for you non movie buffs ) Was so excited to be able to see this from the air. At the end of this beach is Kingston, home of the big Lobster And the town of Meningie, I can just make out the jetty where we stopped to have a look around Meningie on Lake Alexandria, which is fed by the mighty Murray river Big windblown sand dunes And where the Murray meets the ocean Then the hills of Myponga, south of Adelaide ( been here as well ) Sellicks beach And Noarlunga, surfed there not so long ago ( scroll down ) Flight attendant told me a good view was to be had of Adelaide from the other side, but all windows seats taken, so he suggested I try the window in the toilet 🙂
Port Adelaide and the salt refineryfurther north of Adelaide And here, despite the fuzzyniss from toilet window, can just make out Lake Bumbunga where I have been countless times to photograph the salt lake Wardang Island off Port Victoria, south Australia Pretty Protected Goose Island of Wardinga, and clear shot of all the beaches on the island Crossing the Spencer Gulf woauw, look at that colour, just south of Arno Bay Want to get up close and have a look Venus Bay
( ok, to be continued in next post )
