The next day I was pretty pleased to be leaving Ceduna.
I thought I may have heard from Laura but she must have decided to spend a bit of time at Cactus Beach.
With fires raging near Port Lincoln and the tourist bureau advising there wasn't much to see south on the Peninsula unless you have a 4WD, I decided to cut straight across towards Port Augusta.
The most interesting part of the drive was seeing a big galah:

The next day I managed to spend bumming about in Port Augusta where I ran into one of the nerdy guys who I roomed with at the Adelaide YHA in the middle of the year - another situation to file away under "It's a small world after all".
I also spotted one of the most bogan/Aussie vehicles so far on my trip.

I camped about 30kms south of Port Augusta that night.
The next day I continued the drive south towards Adelaide and stopped in at the Mount Remarkable National Park.
I decided to do the 18km hidden gorge walk which I had all to myself and took about 5 hours (including a minor detour as I accidently strayed from the path on the way back - woops!).

| How's the serenity? |

Spent the night at a free camp site at Parham - not bad.
The next day I drove about 50kms to Adelaide where I had a gig the next day.
The blokes I was rooming with were nice enough and I just spent the day and night chilling in the city.
The gig at Bliss Organic Cafe was a bit of a fizzer, crowd-wise, but I got paid and a free vegan feed so all is good.
