Mt Remarkable, then onto Lincoln National Park

After stocking up on provisions (including 2 rolls of veggie loaf - a weird and hard-to-get vegetarian sandwich loaf that Kate, Zara and Sash are quite partial to in our daily sandwiches...) and saying farewell to Adelaide we drove north to Mt Remarkable. Kate was keen to climb the mountain and so we camped at the east side of the national park for easy access to the walking track. We ended up setting up at the Melrose Showgrounds - which was all quite odd. Some local folk were setting up for a Landrover expo (which made us a bit nervous given the reported animosity between Landcruiser drivers and Landrover fans...) with gazebos and witches hats. We were facing a long drive the next day, so Kate arose with the birds in order to get up Mt Remarkable and back by midday. It was a beautiful climb - good views and some exciting rock fall crossings. An extra hour was added due to a wrong turn, but much time was made up due to the speedy joy of walking without any children! Back for a pack up with aching legs and then a long drive all the way down the east cost of the Eyre peninsular in a mad rush to reach Lincoln National Park, set up a good campsite, before squaring our shoulders and bracing for the Easter hordes...
