The train at Tailem Bend.

We crossed the border from Victoria into South Australia at 11:45 and had to give up our bananas!! Australia is very conscience of the spread of disease and in particular the fruit fly is a most unwelcome visitor.

The bus was giving us some electrical trouble, so we spent the afternoon at an autoelectrician in the quaint little town of Tailem Bend. There was a nice playground and a small train museum close by which was nice for the kids.

We also found a Carob tree, although it has interesting looking seeds,the tree itself really stinks.

South Australia is definitely a place of narrow bumpy roads,even the trees jump out at you from the roads edge.

We found the worlds largest rocking horse and the man with the largest Lego collection.

We camped the night in a little place called Lyndoch.
