Hello everyone!

A bit of a long story today since we didn't write up a story yesterday.

We woke up yesterday after a good night of sleep (queen size beds!) . Bert had already driven the schoolbus around and was now ready to take us on to a fishing trip. We drove to Swan Reach on the Murray River.

We had to cross the river by ferry to get bait first, and then took the ferry back to start our actual fishing. 10 Minutes in and I had a bite already! With some help of reeling it in we had caught our first fish of the day. I had never fished before but it was quite fun and I soon got the hang of it. We caught about 7 fish in total, but the bigger ones slipped free every time.

Soon it was time to head back again, the school needed Bert to drive the bus again and we stayed in, watch the surroundings and uploaded some photos. Early evening Bert was back and we had a great dinner again (T-bone steak). We ended up in front of the television watching some comedy film before we one by one went off to bed.

The next morning we had a barbecued English breakfast before saying goodbye to Les and Bert. They left us with a nice tip for driving to Adelaide, which we followed. We got to see some nice parts of the Barossa Valley before taking the brand new freeway towards Adelaide.

After about a 1 hour drive we reached Mary-anne and Mike's house, Redwood Park. They were waiting for us outside already and we quickly found a spot to park the huge campervan and head inside.

They have a lovely (new) home right next to a park with 2 palm trees in the garden! After a bit of chit chat and coffee and tea we went into the city to look around. We parked right next to the Torrens river and walked on foot from there.

We crossed the river and went into the centre of the city. Followed King Williams road untill we noticed a living Gargoyle standing outside the entrance of the Town Hall. Curious as to what was going on we went inside and ended up getting a drink on the balcony of the Town Hall which was being used for the Fringe festival. There was even live music playing there and the gargoyle followed us up stairs.

After some good laughs and a nice drink we went out again looking for a place to eat. We went into a place called Mekong Thai. We had a great dinner there, quite spicy and hot! When we finished up we went back towards the car. We walked past a part of the Fringe festival near the Adelaide theater and we heard some great music and saw the long queue.

We decided to keep on going to the car and drive back home. Having some coffee and tea and Irish whiskey before going to bed. Tomorrow we'll continue in Adelaide, and we'll see you then!
