Another perspective.
The Salvation Army Hall at Moonta. It is now used as a house and is currently up for sale.
The Salvation Army used to be made up of Port Broughton, Moonta and Kadina. They have now combined and it is now called "The Copper Coast Corps" and their new building is at Kadina. We found it and as it had a Salvo Op Shop we had a little look around. I scored a new pair of sandals for just $5.00, a skirt and a blouse for just $1.00 each.
Moonta is a really nice little town and is just a few kilometers from Pt Hughes where we are staying. We have driven around Moonta and really like the old sandstone bricks used for building. S.A. sandstone homes are lovely.
Earlier this week we took a drive down the Peninsula along the west coast going first to Maitland and then to Minlaton. Weather wasn't looking good so we crossed over to Stansbury which is on the east coast of the peninsula which turned out to be a lovely little seaside village that we both liked. We then took a leasurely drive stopping at all the little coastal villages including Port Vincent, Port Julia and Pine Point. Ardrossan was our last stop on the east coast before we crossed back over to Port Hughs where we are staying. Port Hughs is really a nice part of the Peninsula. The caravan park here is unique as it is divided into two parts. When we arrived here it had been very windy and Ken was told that everyone that had been camped on the bay had packed up and came up to the site where the reception was as it wasn't quite as windy. The part of the park that is right on the beach would've been lovely had it not been for the wind. Maybe next time the weather will be in our favour.
We leave on Friday morning and will be making our way on to Broken Hill. It is only three hundred klms but we are intending to take it slowly getting there. We intend to free camp along the way.
That's it for now.
Love to one and all
Ken and Lyn
