Port Noarlunga

It is getting warmer. We bought a 2.5 litre canister with a pump full of suncream. No idea what the local use, but I'm sure we'll need a lot of the stuff to protect our pale and interesting skins.

My (still fresh & first) impressions of Australia are that it is as beautiful as you imagine it. It is also peaceful, quiet and relaxed - I've heard it all, but wasn't sure what it meant in real terms, now I do. It means little traffic, places to sit down in bars and restaurants, shop assistants, who have time and want to be helpful, beaches without crowds (see above photo - this is the busiest I've seen so far) and so on. Maybe it's my "honeymoon" period with Australia, maybe it's simply good.
