Get to Streaky Bay, in a spot next to Richard and Penny. Lou and Ollie get them to play Ultimate Werewolf. Penny is sly and wins as the werewolf. Everyone else fails the BS test.
During the day, we wander into town, which is in good condition.
Looks like a semi important old port town.
The local peninsula drive goes past some nice cliff coast with a noisy blow hole.
On the way to Coffin Bay, we stop at the Australian Sea Lion colony at Point Labatt.
They're not very playful today. Just a pair wallowing in the shallows.
A pup makes a noise that we initially thought was Ollie. What a weird call! He's almost in the middle of the shot on the left, a tiny bit up from the middle, talking to his mum maybe, who's standing up almost in the water.
Spoke to the farmer, Dennis Cash, at Murphy's Haystacks. He says he likes opening his farm up to visitors as he loves to chat tot he visitors. If he has a fight in the kitchen, he can always come up then chat for a bit. He had one family come in from Switzerland, wanted to use the phone. He let them, then offered them some roast for dinner, then the couple stayed. They promised to send some chocolate, and some months later, in came 12 boxes of chocolate, so the 10 kids and 23 parents had one box each. What a nice tale. Apparently the Swiss couple visited once more with their kids.
We'd said we had the kids sitting in the car as they're a bored of seeing all this beautiful stuff. They're more interested in tablets and other devices. He said to get them out as they can run around the rocks.
And he was right! On cue, they started running around the rocks, a bit further on from the main haystack rocks above.
Murphy's Haystacks may not be the traditional name for them.
