Laura is a rural town in the Mid North of South Australia approximately 2 ½ hours drive from Adelaide. We head to the Laura Caravan Park for this two night get away to explore the area including the newly opened Bluff Lookout which gives stunning views of Spence Gulf and the towns of Port Pire, Whyalla and Port Germein.
On our way to the Bluff Lookout we view the Wirrabara Art Silo and enjoy a great lunch at the famous Stone Hut Bakery while enjoying the company of their aviary birds.

Passing this video onto my granddaughter to watch as her name is Laura, so nice to see a lovely town as pretty as she is.

Thank you, too kind. The pronouncing of a lot of names is sometimes a challenge as the English language isn't always easy to get correct.

A funny story about the Wirrabara Bluff Lookout, the local farmers in that area fought the council for years. They didn't want people potentially wandering through their land. But they finally said OK to it in 2021 and now we have a nice lookout.

@justcruisinwithmicksally837 Год назад

It is a great lookout, with the perfect weather conditions the gulf blue water should be spectacular to look at.

Thanks a great video, I was born in Laura and lived in Stone Hut as kid. I still visit a few times and enjoy Mountain Biking and bush walking in the area. Great drone footage of the Bluff. I remember the TV tower being built and watching pieces being added to it from distance.

@ianshepherd3090 2 года назад

Thanks for the video. I'll share it with my family. It looks like a good destination for a family camp. I enjoy your road train videos, I spent a bit of time on the Stuart Hwy last year, mostly in my old white Maverick towing a white car trailer with a large, solid cargo section at the front, and loaded with house and shed gear on the trips heading south. I have a lot of respect for the professionalism of road train drivers like yourself.

@justcruisinwithmicksally837 2 года назад

Thanks Ian, glad you enjoyed what you watched. Should you ever head to Laura, I reckon the Forrest should be ideal in the winter months.

@cathymiller3856 2 года назад

Great video. I love the drone footage, it brings a different perspective. Do you have to ask permission to fly it at the caravan park? I’ve noticed on our travels that there seems to be more and more signs saying “no drones” and some people are quite vocal in their opposition to there use.

@justcruisinwithmicksally837 2 года назад

No permission is required that I have ever heard of although you have to be aware of all the drone rules that apply no matter where you are. There are also local and government restrictions that you must abide by as well. If drones where used correctly then less people would be offended by their use.

Comment re Video time 19:24 , on the detour trip to Darwin you went through Ilfracombe 25K's before Longreach, did you notice all the old machinery on the right side of the highway , I have taken photo's of near all of them , must post the photo's to my Facebook soon.

Hi Mick, great review of the caravan park. Definitely popping that one on the list. The view from the bluff was awesome. Are you able to take a motorhome up there and the day rest area too? Great to see more of Sally 💜 and the rest of the family. Laura is a must see when next in SA. Thanks for taking us along.

@justcruisinwithmicksally837 2 года назад

The road would be suitable for a standard size motorhome but not a bus size if you know what I mean.

@railvlogger1439 2 года назад

I remember in the early 80' I drove my FJ 55 Landcruiser from Brisbane to Perth and stayed overnight in a YHA hostel in Wirrabara State Forest. It was a converted logging camp. I wonder if it is still there?

Hi Mick, thoroughly enjoy all of your camping and roadtrain trips. We have viewed over and over due to locations and tips. Would you mind letting me know the brand and model of your drone. I’m getting one and if I can do what you have done, I would be ecstatic. Cheers, Rob

@justcruisinwithmicksally837 2 года назад

Most of what you are viewing was done with my original drone which was a DJI Spark. I have recently upgraded to a DJI Air S2 drone. I am a strong believer in the DJI products as they are the most reliable and easiest drone to fly without hitting anything as well as rewarding the user with great sill and video footage.

Great video as always Mick, thanks. May be a stupid question now but being from England i don't know so..... Why are some places named after females such as Laura or Catherine?

@justcruisinwithmicksally837 2 года назад

The town names normally come from some history event or the name of a prominent person involved with the town. Male or female, depends who shines out the most in each location when the town was first established is normally the reason. Great question Carl, one could possibly argue many different reasons.
