Day 2 another day on the road heading north to the sun.
Again the car run well, I am really impressed with it, however cannot carry as much fuel, but that is not a problem.
On leavcing Kaniva Caravan Park we got talking to a couple from Somerville Claremont Estate near the water tanks, small world, they were heading to Adelaide.
Left 9.00am travelled to Tintinarra had Morning tea at the side of the road, then onto Murray Bridge for lunch, down on the Murray River, very nice hundreds of cockies screaming and flying around.
Then Poor David and Brenda took the point to trail blaze us through the back hills to aviod Adelaide, which turned out to be a bit of an epic, as none of us really new where we were going, but saw plenty of the nice countryside which was part of Barrosa Valley and arrived in Gawler at 2.00pm Adelaide time, then after setting up we went for a walk through Town.
