After Hahndorf I headed further east to the Murry Bridge. The route along the Princess Highway was very scenic, but there were no official layby's where one could stop to take a photo so I have a few of me errr taking photo's whilst driving (I'm sure that's just as illegal but no so obvious :o)
Much like Hahndorf there wasn't a lot to offer in Murray Bridge. I drove over the bridge. Took a photo of the bridge. Drove over it again and stopped alongside the river Murray where some paddle steamers were moored waiting for someone - anyone - to turn up for a leisurely ride down the Murray. After a few more photo's of the river, the bridge and a steam engine I decided it was time to head back to Adelaide via Mnt Lofty (because I just love the road that winds down the Adelaide Hills to Adelaide).
After some lunch at the hostel I phoned a friend and returned to Henley Beach, west of Adelaide, where we had coffee at Avida. The coffee house is overlooks the jetty which became bathed in a yellow light as the sun slid slowly from the sky:

Hi Lee,
Do you think you have a large mouse in the house who is just simply very very hungry for cheese?
Hahndorf sounds impressive. You must have caught it on an off day. I'm sure the cattle were just resting in between gigs.
Kelly passed all her modules so gets to fight another year at uni. Just as well with her working towards her 3rd year credits mapping in France. H and I spent Sunday moving her accomodation. God she has got so many rocks and we had to carry them to her attic room. She owes us big time. I have learnt a valuable lesson in student speak. The words 'will you help' really mean 'you can do it all'. Now I know why she fled the country for six weeks. On her next move we are going to be conveniently out of the country.
Keep well, best wishes Gill.
PS Have you put some cheese traps around. I favour the block of goats cheese wired to the mains - only kidding.
