Cruise.

My Aunty got a great surprise to see us all waving her goodbye. She was even more surprised when we said we were going with her. 
We boarded the great Rhapsody of the seas cruise liner. 
We settle down and had some lunch and we didn't leave the harbour until eight that night. 

Watching Sydney from the back of the ship was incredible. 

The liner had great entertainment delicious food and great company. Unfortunately with all the big ours are pretty network leading up to the cruiseI found Saturday was a great day for sleeping. 

I had a huge headache but wasn't sure if it was the cocktails I drank the night before or the lack of sleep I had had leading up to the cruise. 

When entertain the first night of the band from Melbourne called the Aussie boys. FaceTime a number of Australian songs and entertained us with their human nature like moves. The second night entertainment was the piano man. 

It was a great cruise and I'm sure I'll think about going on another one another time. 

I didn't take many photos of the trip here are a few you. 

Me, my uncle, my mum my auntie.

My auntie and uncle celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with a song over dinner. The waiters sang happy anniversary during dinner. 

Now I have two years to plan my parents 50th wedding anniversary.

Barossa Valley Day 1 and 2

One word that describes the last five days. FANTASTIC!!!!

This is a photograph of the Kms I have travelled since Thursday today is Tuesday. 


Yes!  I did travel these 2000 plus Kms over five days, passing through three states, NSW, Victoria and South Australia. 

I stopped the night at Kylie's (addicted to quilting) and together we drive over the border 



To the Tanunda caravan park. 

As we pulled up to book in  a friendly voice called out.  It was Bill!! I really couldn't hear what he was saying so I rang!  

It was great to see Ange and Bill, I generally stay with them when I return to Balranald. 

This is the cabin we stayed in with Kylie and Bill and Angela stayed next door. 


That night we went to one of the local pubs to have a meal. Oh my goodness the meal was great. 
I had a reef and beef delicious. Thanks Bill for paying. 

Being in the Barossa I really wanted to go to a winery but this didn't happen. I certainly made sure I bought some local wine. I chose GRANT BURGE moscato.
