The chilly wind was still blowing as we woke on Wednesday morning. We packed up the camper and headed down to the camp kitchen on our way out of the campsite to have our breakfast, boil the kettle and do the dishes.
Our travels home took us through Hawker to Cradock, Orroroo and Jamestown (bakery for lunch), then Spalding, Clare and down through Tarlee and on to the northern expressway.
The most significant thing I can say about the drive is to remark upon the number of nankeen kestrels that we saw (approximately 40 of them) hovering near the road edges. There must be a lot of mice out in the paddocks for them to look for. We also saw at least 5 black shouldered kites doing the same thing. Trevor did a great job of concentrating on the driving for the long drive. We didn’t hit the rain until we were in the outer suburbs of Adelaide.
We arrived home just as peak hour was starting and were glad to pull into our own driveway and to be off of the road and out of the crazy traffic at last. The clothes washing and unpacking were commenced. An early tea and then a relatively early night were in order. It was good to be in our own beds again.
