Leaving Adelaide


Well I'm about to leave Adelaide again. I've spent the last couple of week's in gumeracha packing pears and training cherry tree's to grow with the arms out horizontally instead of the natural upwards one tree objected and won the fight by hitting me on the chin so I now have a big scab. hmm how pleasant.

I've been back in ad for the weekend, Yesterday, Sunday, me and Liam headed down to The star of Greece restaurant in pot Willunga, brilliant position on a cliff at the top of the beach, could watch the waves coming in over the white sand, very pretty and Very tasty food. Liam had the fish and chips which was huge! with homemade tartar sauce. I had the lamb which was wrapped around sundries tomatoes and came with carrots and creamy potato slices, is that gratin? anyhoo I had Quince tart to finnish with syrup and ice cream, delish! We went for a walk along the beach and watched 2 eagles chasing pigeons think they were wedge tailed eagles. I don't think I've ever seen an eagle before. Then we went to Mclaren Vale and sampled the wines at Wirra Wirra wineries where Liam bought the 1999 church block and at Hugh Hamilton Fine wines where I got a merlot. Hopefully will have a chance to drink it before I go on Wednesday.

I'm not looking forward to leaving at all. But at least I've managed to be happy and enjoy the last of my days here instead of moping and moaning. The Grand prix should be good, and once I'm in Melbourne I'm sure I'll love it.

s.x oh that's the rocking horse in Gumeracha that I never got round to climbing it shut at 5pm each day so I never made it. But it didn't rock so I think it was false advertising anyway.
