The Winnebago Adelaide Hills Safari finished Tuesday morning and we saw off 15 or so of the participants. Received an invitation to attend the launch of the new brand mobile home “Avida” (Winnebago by another name). Adelaide showgrounds early Wednesday took some effort but for free entry to the Caravan & Camping Show it might have been worth it. Spent the day looking at camping things, even bought some. Dunno what to do with them but they were bright and shiny. Still don’t know how to put up either of the two tents we’ve got but Jude wants to buy one thats easier to put up anyway.
Forgot – last day of Safari included tour of Laratinga wetlands at Mt Barker (a sewerage treatment complex by any other name). Actually very interesting ecological concept. Then on to Hahndorf village for an introduction to two artists works and a presentation on the history and museum of Hahndorf and its Academy.
End of safari Dinner – a “German experience” – sausages.
Now in Victor Harbour after checking out possible ferry ride to Kangaroo Island. Decided to defer the expense – $375.00 for car and two people. Very expensive day out so we may do it later and take more time staying on the island.
Called in to see Sue & Peter Patterson at Normanville. Ended up spending a very pleasant afternoon and going back for dinner Saturday. Lovely place and loved the 4A (TR that is)

The end of Safari Dinner looks like it had alot of old folks there, so how did you young folk cope? I love the old stone buildings in SA too great shot.
The view from that balcony is inspiring to look at every day – wow! But I would be worried about stepping out there with those ghostly figures wandering about and pointing at you!
What a view!! Fantastic outlook. Bloody envious of you both. Still, someone has to keep the wheels of the country turning so you SFR’s can experience all I’m still working to provide for you. Hope that leads to guilt ridden sleepless nights, but knowing you Bazza, I doubt it.
Roll on Winny!!
Cheers, Bob.
mmmmmmm!
