Busy.

I was busy at work today. I really wanted to get something done and it worked. Even though my colleagues slowed me down by buying me farewell cake and offering a farewell card with nice messages and a voucher to eat in one of Adelaide's finest establishments. I will enjoy that very much!

On the way home it was busy as well. because it rained. And in Adelaide people panic when a few drops fall down and traffic slowly grinds to a halt...

Hugs and kisses

The mother dove, who is currently sitting on a new set of eggs, having breakfast with one of her other kids. But the kids are now able to find food themselves and mom absolutely doesn't care about them anymore and actually starting pecking at it when she thought it was stealing too much of her food. It's funny how things go in nature.

On the way to Office Works this morning we saw a P plate truck driver.

At Office Works we bought new ink cartridges and a new chair for Nicole. Her old one may be bad for her back so we're going to try this one. It's a rather luxurious leather model (that behaved very unfriendly when putting it together.).

After this we went to a branch of my bank in Norwood that was open on Saturday morning where I took care of some business. We also went to the supermarket there and we saw this little band playing.

Then we dumped our shopping at home and went past Jaycar and Bunnings.

On the way home we drove behind this car with a 'XOXOX' plate. That's a lot of hugs and kisses, the girl who was driving it must've been extremely friendly.

My Jaycar and Bunnings loot for today: Black stuff to paint certain fountain parts with. Some screws. A set of imperial taps to fix the holes in Nicole's chair that were tapped crappy, a little fountain pump, another container for parts and a magazine full of car ads to keep up to speed with current prices.

The drive down the peninsula

Early morning. I wanted to remove the tape before we left for Yorke peninsula. It looks alright but unfortunately the tape ripped off some of the wall's paint...

Nicole quickly making a phonecall to Internode, the ISP we want to hook up with. Let's hope this can be done quickly.

Mason waving us goodbye as we drive out of the driveway.

Traffic was already busy. Standing next to a Adelaide rubbishtruck.

On our way. Small car, big car.

Irish people must have settled here first.

The skies were beautiful.

Arriving at our campingsite where we had hired a small bungalow for the weekend.

In the evening we visited Karin ex-colleague Trevor and his wife Sharon. Trevor drove us down the beach in his big-ass Toyota truck.
