183 - South Australia Travel part 2

In the last podcast we talked about how awesome South Australia is,
but we ran out of time just talking about Adelaide and Kangaroo
Island. And there's even more to the state than that! Northwest of
Adelaide is the Eyre Peninsula, where you can swim with sharks or
tuna, visit national parks, ancient caves and the Nullarbor Plain
among other adventures. If you're looking for places called Eyre
(perhaps you're a Charlotte Brontë fan?) Lake Eyre might be worth a
visit. The lake is dry for most of the time but occasionally fills
with water, especially after times of heavy rain in the north. The
flooding in Queenstown this year and last has meant that the lake
has had water in it for the last couple of years, and in 2008 we
were lucky enough to see the lake for ourselves. If you don't have
pilots as family members you can do a scenic flight from Coober
Pedy, William Creek, Marree, Adelaide or even Brisbane, though it's
a rather expensive day out. You could also choose a tour by 4x4
that takes you to the edge of the lake to see it from the ground.
