Day 26 Sun 5 Jun 16, Adelaide to Port Augusta 306 km, rain 7 to 18 deg. Woke to the sound of raindrops on the roof so glad we packed away the awning etc last night. A bit sad this morning to be leaving as we really enjoyed our stay in Adelaide and only scratched the surface of things to do and see. Good excuse to come back again. Headed north on highway 1 with very little traffic (it is Sunday after all), with wind and drizzle all the way. Decided to stop at Snow...

Day 24 Fri 2 Jun 16, Adelaide, 7 to 18 deg, fine in the morning, cloudy but fine in the afternoon. Brisk, crisp and clear this morning on my walk with no indication that it was going to get a bit gloomy in the afternoon. Downed a hot brekky and headed for the beach on the bike. After I got to the city I followed the Torrens to West Beach cycleway, turned right at the ocean and stopped at Henley Beach a few ks up the path. The ride from the city is completely off ...

Day 23 Thurs 2 Jun 16, Adelaide, 9 to 18 deg, high clouds most of the day brief periods of sun. No rain forecast. This is not Qld so one shouldn't expect two days of consecutive sunshine! At least it wasn't raining when I went for my walk. Although it was cloudy I decided to take a chance with the washing anyway. We're not in one spot for a week very often so got to take the opportunity when it presents. So done the sheets and towels then hung them outside. Chore...

Day 22 Wed 1 Jun 16, Adelaide, fine & mainly sunny, 10 to 19deg. A 5:15am start this morning to take Wendy to the airport for her 8am flight to Sydney for a work conference. With the sun shining and the temp at 11deg I headed out on the bike to take in the City of Churches. It soon warmed up nicely. Adelaide is one of my favourite cities in the world as there's so much packed into a relatively small package. They also do everything so well. You can just about...

Day 20 Mon 30 May 16, Adelaide, morning showers followed by a mainly fine day, 13 to 18 deg. A quick early walk with the brollies kicked off the day. Nice to see the rain has followed us; but we really don't begrudge them some rain as it's usually so dry here. Decided to hit the shops while the showers hung around, so we drove to Gepps Cross about 5km away where there's a stack of home stores. Needed to replace our electric frypan, which is only 26 years old; (on...
