Sunday 22nd March - Kingston SE to Meningie

It got warmer today. Well not by much, but it did reach 22.2 with a low of 11.9.

Our drive along the Limestone Coast continues We're off to Meningie today and staying at the Lake Albert Caravan Park. The drive today is about 140km, so an easy drive if not a bit monotonous. We passed the Coorong and saw a few salt pans. The Coorong water level looked to be very low as the water was quite a distance from the road. We stopped at Tanganekal and took some photos of the Coorong.

The van park sits on the edge of Lake Albert. This lake gets its water from Lake Alexandrina and the two lakes are know as the Lower Lakes. Lake Albert has a surface area of 168 square kilometres and is a great spot for fishing and bird watching.

They announced on the news tonight that the SA borders would be closed and anyone coming into SA will have to self-isolate for 14 days. We'll need to watch what is happening around the country, as this may not end well.
