When in SA in '07 I did,
the Iron Knob mining museum,
Whyalla steel mill and maritime tours,
Booleroo and Kingston SE vintage tractor museums,
walked the mile long jetty at Port Germein,
drove around the old race track at Nuriootpa,
Coorong Lakes National Park
and blue lake at Mt Gambier.
Next year either before or after the rally, plan on going to Kangaroo Island before return to NSW.

Jerome Lyons runs "Tribal Instruments Australia" in an old cheese factory just out of Meadows. He makes stunningly beautiful instruments, such as djembe drums, duns, rainsticks, xylophones and so on. For those with alternative musical tastes, and a touch of hippie in their blood, this place is for you. I have one of his rainsticks and it is truly a beautiful work of art.
