Woke up at 08:30, had breakfast then a walk along the beach. It was a bit chilly and windy but not too bad.
Drove about half an hour to Coffin Bay, stopped at a lookout and went for a walk in the bush and saw a couple of goannas but they scuttled into the undergrowth. Coffin Bay is famous for its oysters, and we stopped at the only restaurant there, but it was a proper seafood place. I had oysters Rockefeller to start, Song had oysters Russian. I had the blue fin tuna steak for main and a glass of wine (because I’m on holiday).
After a few minutes, Matthew Guy walked in. Small world.
The oysters were ok, I’m not a big fan, but the tuna was really, really good – it was crumbed, on a walnut salad with a cheese sauce. Song also liked her marinara.
While we were eating we saw an emu outside just wandering around, as you do.
We decided to book again for the evening but they didn’t open, so made it a booking for the next day for lunch.
Went for a walk along the beach and saw quite a few pelicans, some on the pier, some on the water and a couple flying around, they were pretty big.
Went back to the room and watched some stuff I’d downloaded, watched the news and saw that the biggest storm in 50 years was going to hit the area from tomorrow so might have a problem with the roads, although we thought the route home might be ok for the day after. Went for dinner at the number 4 restaurant in Port Lincoln in a hotel.
We had dips and bread to share to start, then I had kingfish steak and Song had salt and pepper squid. I also had a glass of wine because I’m on holiday and it’s also my birthday.
Both meals were good, I couldn’t finish my fish so Song had it.
We were a bit disappointed that Matthew Guy didn’t show up, but we walked past the restaurant we went to the previous night and he was in there so we were happy.
Went to the supermarket again to pick up some more stuff then back to the room, watched tv then sleep
