Good Morning Everyone.
I trust that you are having a great weekend, wherever you are in this great Nation of ours.
Yesterday Fiona and I did a long Saturday drive ( as you do when it is a perfect 24° degree day ) to visit a special part of our State for the sole purpose of visiting a Lighthouse. This is no ordinary lighthouse, but something very special. We also dropped in to inspect another very important Church only around 5 kilometres away.
Do you know where these images are take and what is so special about these two locations.
Happy answering and lets see how long it takes to get the correct answers.
Cheers
Stephen

Not familiar with the church, but the lighthouse is Australia's only inland light house!

Hi Rob
You go to the top of the class. It is indeed Australia's and the more importantly, also the Southern Hemispheres only inland Lighthouse located at
Point Malcolm.
Now that you know where it is, the answer is to the second question should be easy now.
Have another go.......lol
Cheers

Raukkan Church on the $50 note behind David Uniapon.
That is a nice drive down there.

Hi Pete
Well done on another correct answer. It was a perfect day down there for sure and it is through sites like this, that we hope to inspire other travellers through our great Coorong area to take the detour off of the main highway and visit these special and important
places
Thanks for taking your time to answer the last question.
Cheers
Stephen

Hi Odog
Thanks for that and if you are ever passing through the Upper Coorong, the small detour is well worth it. If you are into
free camping, there is a great
free camp at
Narrung only 5 kilometres from Raulkkan.
Cheers

Hi Frank
Like all parts of Australia, there are always some very interesting important history lessons right on our own doorsteps
If you are every over near the Upper Coorong, the small detour is well worth it.
Cheers
