Before we moved on from Pt Augusta we had a fantastic visit to the Wadlata Outback Centre.

Everyone was thrilled with the quality of the exhibits (static and interactive), history and cultural information etc that was on display. An hour is just not enough time to spend there if you want to sit and enjoy some of the interactive exhibits, everyone really enjoyed the whole experience and would have liked to have had more time there - unfortunately because of the distances we had to travel that day, we did have to move on. 

Our first nights stop was at the Acacia Ridge Motel in Port Augusta. Owners Andrew and Maria were wonderfully welcoming to our group and looked after us all extremely well. The food was great and plentiful and, catered for some passengers dietary needs without fuss. Nothing was too much trouble.

As the weather had been very cold, we delighted in our rooms being warm (heaters were on) and cosy to move into to. 

Maria bought Diesel their dog to say goodbye and thank you to us before our departure which we loved.
