This morning Darryl and I reminisced about our meeting as we walked past THE wall - there were so many out riding and walking and enjoying the lovely sun shine. We were very keen to get to Harbor Town as we’ve been starved of retail therapy so off we went, nice and early - and we were all commenting how it must be struggling a bit as hardly anyone was there and the car was rather lonely in the car park. When we got inside, we found out the shops didn’t open till 11am so we had to kill some time by having a coffee. So once 11am arrived, we were in our element and all ended up with some goodies!
To our surprise however, when we walked out of the complex, boy, did we get a shock as there were hundreds of cars in the park and the car was hard to find!! Needless to say, the place is thriving!!So with our retail therapy done, we headed to Glenelg and strolled around and ended up enjoying a lovely lunch at the Grand.
We were a little sad to see La Mancha is no longer - we had some very happy times there years ago.
We strolled around Glenelg and then decided to show Dennis & Tops the heart of the city at Alberton Oval.
The tour finished with us eventually finding Edgecombe St ( there’s so many road changes you can’t just drive down many of these streets.) This is where Darryl spent his early years - till about 13. We even caught a glimpse of where we lived when first married at Norman St Woodville.
Today we awoke to a heavy fog which didn’t lift till lunch time. We thought it wasn’t enough to stop the planes taking off as there seemed to be an exodus from about 6am, but the news tells us the airport was in chaos!

We were very spoilt today by lunching at North Adelaide at the Taylor premises. We enjoyed a lovely lunch and of course had a very happy afternoon together - thank you Anne & Greg!
We had a quick look at some of the beautiful homes and buildings in North Adelaide then headed back to our ‘houses’ Tonight we are dining in the lovely camp kitchen again - which we seem to have all to ourselves.
Tomorrow we leave this lovely part of the world and head to Victor Harbor. We are all thinking of little Ryder who had grommets put in today and hope he’s over it all now and able to eat again!
So till the next blog, we hope everything is good in your lives,
Love from DDMT ❌❌❌❌❌
