Wednesday 25th July
Our trip northward along the Lincoln Highway took us through small towns named Tumby Bay, Port Neill and onto Cowell where we spent the night.  I have spoken in the past of the tourist information people being helpful, knowledgeable and friendly – well today we struck the opposite. A very lacklustre approach was displayed by the person who had the information office and who also ran a takeaway fish and chip shop.  There was no interest from him telling us what Cowell had to offer, so we found a caravan park  for the night, enabling us to get good TV reception to watch the final episode of Master Chef, went for a walk and and determined we would move in the morning.

There were two features we found for ourselves in Cowell, one being a shopfront which had lovely painted murals of the local area and a gift/patchwork shop with a delightful lady serving customers.
