A Wonderful Free Camp Site

Check this out! Green Hill Lake Reserve. We stayed here overnight on our way back to Melbourne. Such an incredible spot! Cost us $5 for the night. Of course, Sticky and Denis had to check out the fishing situation. This lake was completely dry this time last year, so it has now been stocked with over 3,000 rainbow and brown trout. Tragically, the boys did not see any evidence of this. But, we consoled ourselves with a big camp fire, red wine and spaghetti marinara. Superb.

the Taj is happy to be here.



A Walk in the Botanical Gardens of Adelaide

I spent a couple of days, just hanging out with Malgosia and the girls. It was fantastic. Very relaxing. Walks, cafe lattes, cakes and Malgosia's delicious cooking. What more could you want?





Adelaide. Catching Up With Malgosia and the Girls

Our favourite eating venue... The Central Market food hall... so much variety and incredibly cheap. Great fun.

And then... The best chocolate shop in the whole of South Australia.
The girls shouted Malgosia and I to sample these delights... Yum.

A Sterling Example of Australian Taste

The Big Koala. Speaks for itself.

A Sleep Over at Lizzie and Tim's House

We dropped in to see Liz and Tim. Took the dogs for a run in the park behind their new house. Lots of fun, and charging around. Zeus is a horse in disguise...



Annex and Carport is a Bit of a Mess

The floods could have been a lot worse... apparently the water only got to the first step up to the house. But my stuff, stored in the annex got a bit of a soaking. Still. It meant having a good clean out!




Driving To Bright

You see odd things in the middle of Australia... one of these is a couple of submarines in Holbrook...


And then there is a horse, rearing in celebration.
