Struggled to get out of bed today, knowing that the journey today would be so different to every other day of this amazing journey. Today we are going home. The morning air was cold, so very glad we had power to keep us toasty. And it was nice to have bright blue sky to welcome us homeward bound. We left our little campsite in Brim around 9.30am, passing by those incredible painted silos once more. We headed south past the small towns of Minyip, Rupanyip and Gl...

Woke up early after a night of little sleep to rain pattering down outside. A good thing we packed up our gear and rolled up our awning last night so nothing was wet. Began packing up, showered snd made brekky and then we discovered a problem with our hot water service. Yesterday we thought there may be a problem with the electric hot water, probably the element but this morning we discovered that there is a leak and we had a lot of water pooling internally, whic...

Slept in late and had a lazy day today, starting with a delicious brunch of scrambled eggs and roasted capsicum sitting outside by the river. Mid afternoon we picked up a couple of things in the supermarket and filled fuel in preparation for leaving Wentworth tomorrow.

Made a banana chocolate cake in the afternoon and sat outside reading. I must be in a dessert kind of mood as after we ate salmon and veggies for dinner, I decided to grill pineapple slices dipped in coconut sugar and cinnamon. They were very sweet but paired with last night's chocolate cof...

Lazy morning today, followed by lunch at a local cafe and and an afternoon drive back to the lovely Trentham Estate on the banks of the Murray River to sip delicious chilled red wine and eat a platter of cheese, dried fruit and olives outside on the lawn. Back to our campsite and another magical late afternoon watching the sunlight light up the river in front of us. We could both get used to this... Gadi took Cadbury out for a quick paddle on the kayak but soon...
