Day 20: Na-Na-Na-Naracoorte

It is a short hop-and-a-skip from Mount Gambier to Naracoorte, so we arrived here just before lunch. The boys went to check things out as per usual and came back exclaiming about how big the swimming pool is. "Bigger than all the pools at the Launceston Aquatic centre put together!" Prone, as they are, to exaggeration we decided to suspend judgement on that bit of information. Duncan's curiousity got the better of him and off he went to check it out. He came back with the verdict that they were right - and it could possibly be bigger than that! This was all the inducement we needed to spend the afternoon lounging at the pool side, which is what we did.

Of course there was the obligatory quick trip into town to get some bread, milk, etc (no Coles here, but Woolworths will do), and then it was into the bathers and off to swim.

Tomorrow is our only full day here and we plan to make the most of it checking out all the caves...which is why we stopped here in the first place.
