fun trip in Whyalla
Whyalla is located in a small town in SA, I guess mainly mining, most of the people on this small plane are good working mode d big guys.
Before I went, I looked for a few places I wanted to go on IG, but in the end, because of the weather, my husband refused to get up early and went to fewer places.
The first stop is to get close to nature! When you go to Australia, you must go and get in touch with animals. There is only one zoo in the whole of Whyalla, the Whyalla fauna and reptile park, which generally houses animals that have been treated at the vet but whose owners are missing/no owners but not suitable for returning to nature.
Because my friend is a veterinarian, driving the car to the clinic, the administrator of the pavilion was very scared when he saw us, because he is afraid of snakes, and snakes are very common animals sent to them by the veterinarian😂
Anyway, the pavilion is very small, there are very few animal species, and the administrator said that no one went that day, so they gave us some free feeding food to let us in and feed the animals.
After walking for 20 minutes, I thought I had been walking for two hours. After going to the toilet, I was thinking of leaving, when I suddenly saw someone bringing out a baby alligator. I rushed to ask if I could touch, touch, bb likes me, the guard was given to me to hold ❤️❤️❤️ Hold for ten minutes, I started to shake, but he did not want to leave. When the guard had to take him back, he got angry, and grabbed the guard, and pooped on him, the guard said the baby loved me and couldn't wait to change hands, to show extreme dissatisfaction.
Since it started to rain, we had to get back in the car as soon as possible to take shelter from the rain and left.
The rain came and went quickly, less than 10 minutes after it fell, we stopped before the car could decide where to go, I said softly that we might as well go to the salt fields.
GPS said Olsson salt was nearby, half an hour to arrive, my friend hung the word "brave" in his heart, at all costs shoveled into the jungle mud to the aqueduct to the salt field, resulting in a few hours to arrive. I was so scared, the barren hills just after heavy rain, in case the wheel entered the mud tum can not come back in big trouble. Fortunately nothing happened.
There was no one in the salt pans, not even where the factories were seen. Only small pink lakes were seen, lots of white & pink like salt stuff on the shore. great! It was very windy there, the wind was not very comfortable after 5 minutes, so I quickly checked in and got in the car to turn on the heater to keep warm.
Back home it was 6:45pm, it turned out that the restaurant there will be closed before 8pm, housemate was worried about not catching up (because still have to find a parking space, and have to walk), fortunately arrived around 7pm, to like a charter, because we were the last group of customers, they said 5 minutes late to close the shop😮 We ate a delicious Indian meal.
After that we went to the Whyalla foreshore beach that I most wanted to visit. His beach has a huge, huge shoal. It was very windy, so windy that I couldn't open the door, so I went up the mountain outlook, but it was too windy and too cold to walk out of the car door, and it was very dark, I couldn't reach my fingers. Hope to go next summer.
