Waking this morning to find sheep around the camper was an odd but enjoyable way to start the day.

Andy headed off on his daily 10k running pilgrimage, which today took him down the less scenic Princes Highway in the morning fog.

Waking up to sunshine can’t be understated and added to this beauty and awe – for once this does not refer to Michelle, but the scenery that surrounded us at our stay at Bellwether Winery.

It was so breathtaking and will live long in the memory.

The winery was also home to a resident donkey, Jose who appeared to take a shine to us, presumably thinking there was food on offer.

After a lovely morning coffee, we had one more walk around the estate before saying goodbye to Sue and her team.

Our next stop was back on the coast in Robe. It’s blessed with beautiful beaches along with a quaint high street with numerous eateries.

Founded by Cornish immigrants in the 1860’s, there are similar styled buildings as well as a laid back South West England feel.

Like its English cousin, the white sandy beaches are breathtaking and we enjoyed walks throughout the day, notably out to Long Beach, where the fishermen park their 4WDs right beside them on the sand.

The hot weather has stayed with us and topped 35 Celsius today, however the water temperature was unseasonably cool at little over 15 Celsius, v cool for this time of year. As a result it took a while to pluck up the courage before submerging.

After dropping into the local bottle shop and supermarket, we returned to the camper to enjoy the view of the lake as the sun set. Doesn’t get much more beautiful.
