BOUND FOR SOUTH AUSTRALIA At the risk of boring you all rigid, this blog contains yet more photos of impossibly beautiful beaches with white sand, turquoise sea and stunning coastal backdrops.

Then through a storm bomb, anchored but shuddering and rolling in the screaming wind, like being taken for a ride in a belching whale.
