On our final (full) day we enjoyed the sunshine and went for a wander around Robe. This town will be hit with an influx of visitors once school ends this week but for us it was still reasonably quiet and laid back. The ice cream shop on the main drag had received good reports so we decided to test the goods. Yep, this was a winner so get amongst it the next time you drive through.
After sitting around the cabin at the carvan park for the afternoon we headed back into town and went out for dinner. The gourmet pizza we had was delicious and that was followed by a beverage in the sun at a local hotel. From there we caught a flick at the cinema and James Bond entertained us for the remainder of the evening.
Today (Wednesday) we awoke to the realisation that the dream was over but we were ready for the journey home.....as much fun as it has been it has also been very tiring. Time to get back to the land of the living.
Unfortunately the journey back to Adelaide was a tough one as the temperature was on the way to 40 and with no air conditioning in the van it was oppressive to say the least. We drove up the Coorong and crossed the river at Wellington before stopping in Strathalbyn for lunch. The last stretch could not come soon enough but we made it in one piece.
End game.
