Road Trip: Canunda NP to Kingston SE

Headed to Beachport (also known as The Labyrinth we cudnt get out of this town, it was ridiculas, there were no signs to direct you out of town) followed this one road for about 5k and its like the road builders thought they'd stop as they met a cliff edge, so we had to turn back!!!! We should have left a trail of breadcrumbs to show us the way out, however i think this tactic has been applied before to no avale, besides we had no bread...we're poor backpackers!!! Next stop Robe, en route we passed a cyclist who we saw in Mt.Gambier, so we stopped and thought
we'de ask him what the hell he was up to, he'd cycled from Hobart and was on his way to Adelaide, he was from Holland, friendly chap, but god i dnt know how he managed to cycle all that way, i got bord driving down them, some of the roads are so striaght, u cant see the end of them, fair play to him though. Got to Robe, hit the tourist info center only to find out they have free internet access, so we grabbed all the internet gear and madecamp round the computers for a couple of hours, sampled the local pies and drove on to Kingston SE, were we stopped off and saw Larry thr giant Lobster (Kinda scary giant creature that resembles a lobster). In kingston I drove past the information center twice, because it was disguised as a petrol station, well it was the corner of the shop inside the station and the lady who worked there doubled up as the tourist guide, she was very helpful, although she seemed really scared, like we were the first people she'd ever helped....mayb we were??? she recommended we stay at this place called The Granites, not really great but good to the lie on them at night when ur smashed!!!! which we did later that nite, infact Jo has stained his Prada coat with whatever substance coated the granites. Laura also dragged Jo into the sea again, he really didnt look like he wanted to, but it was funny all the same lol :)
