Melbourne to Adelaide

Dear Porky,

We had a lovely journey along the highway and arrived in Adelaide in the afternoon, the weather was great for travelling, overcast sky with a little sunshine in between. After loading up with wine at Dan Murphy's and a little shopping at Coles we posted Pia's Tassie drivers licence which she forgot to take out of our glove box and we were on the road again. SHE was a bit worried about Kangaroos crossing the road, because the sun was setting real fast. Thank goodness we arrived at Parham just before darkness. Parham is 60km north of Adelaide and has a rest area with overnight camping. 8m away from us was a tent which had 2 male occupants, we never saw them, but my word we heard them loud and clear. Their communication was restricted to 3 sentences: you f.... dog, no you can't have the f..... cordial, you can get f..... This went on for about 1 hour, till HE got his iPod out, so that the music over played this interesting conversation. We slept well and got up real early to have breakfast (well deserved after yesterday's fast day), even though the temperature was about 7degrees, a little fresh for HER liking. Soon we were on the road again and headed for Roxby Downs via Port Augusta.

Will write to you soon.

Cheers

Petunia
