Overseas tour Day 107 – Wellington & Langhorne Creek

Goodbye to picturesque Robe and hello to Coorong National Park.

We had a mid-morning stop off at Kingston, to admire the pier & Larry the Lobster (the fishing mecca).

We then pushed on along the coast through the CNP and up to Wellington and our ferry crossing across the Murray River that leads to Lake Alexandrina.

Our afternoon stop was the wine growing area of Langhorne Creek, home to 6 wineries which like Coonawarra excel with their Cab Sav production due to the rich red soil.

Starting to really enjoy the cellar door concept. Pop into a winery, try out their wares (5 or 6 varieties of red, white, rose and sparkling) before picking your favourite and settling down in the afternoons sunshine.

After a relaxing afternoons wine tasting, we settled into our camping ground in the centre of Langhorne Creek along with another dozen or so of like minded wino’s (camper’s and caravans).

The evening was spent listening to the Kookaburras squawk as we finished off a bottle of white in the last of the sunshine.

Local primary school – Michelle’s next appointment?!
