YES, this IS MURPHY'S HAYSTACKS on the EYRE PENINSULA, SA! WOW!!!!!!
If you've seen the famous Instagram pic of MURPHY'S HAYSTACKS on SOUTH AUSTRALIA'S EYRE PENINSULA you probably think it is just a handful or rocks and we've even been told some have looked at them from the car park and moved on!
Geez, we think they got that wrong!
There is so much more here than first meets the eye, so come take a walk through in this episode with Aidan and I!
You can even buy local honey here, it's an overnight camp too and you'll wake up to a pretty amazing view and like me you might think a couple of the rocks are staring at you!

    The lizard looks more like a shingleback than a blue-tongue. It's scales look coarser. And with that more triangular head. Not saying I'm right just what it looks like to me. I used to have a "Sleepy lizard" (Shingleback) as a "pet" when I was in my early teens .. hell, 5 decades ago... yikes... And we used to have a blue-tongue living in our back yard for a while...a few years back. It was sleeker and more finely scaled than the Sleepy..

      Thanks, but we are not that lucky. We would like to learn more about gold prospecting and where you can and can't do it. But that is another thing on our long list.

      Wish I could be a glutton but sorry, Coeliac life is not one I'm always lovin'! 🤣 Especially on the road, I'd love to be able to get stuck into a pie but I can't and that's one big difference between Aidan and I!

    We need to head back there as last time we were there it was all about mountain biking. I suggest you replace your sneezing camera man with a tripod 😂

      ​@filthyoffroadadventures it's definitely worth visiting again, still a lot of mountain biking but plenty more as well. We have a tripod, but she still wants me to do some camera work as I do some things better 😉

    A fabulous place to visit. I grew up in a local town and now live close to Bonegilla (we locals pronounce it as Bone (same as eg. bone in your leg) - e (as for egg) gill (same as a fish gill) -a (pronounced u), Growing up in the 50’s and 60’s we knew a lot of people who spent time there and then moved to local towns. The children went to our schools and we never had racial discrimination issues. Many of them became close friends. I remember as a child going to the camp when I was young and visiting some of the people my parents became friends with. I would listen to their stories of what it was like living in Europe during the war. Even though I was a child I found it heartbreaking listening to some of their stories. Our region was blessed to have these wonderful, resilient people living and working in our community. ❤️🌺

    Hi, what sort of temps were you getting for May. We’re looking for June/July next year.

      @@paulgiles542 Paul from memory we were getting low to mid twenties and sunny, with night time lows of around 5-7. In July you can get high teens to low twenties, but nights can get to zero, if they are clear. A lot depends on the wind direction and speed as well, which you can't really predict, but if from the south it will be cold.
