Easy day ahead.

Salisbury Park, South Australia, Australia
Woke up at 2.30am but managed to get back to sleep until 7.30am when we had an early morning visit from Winston (the dog) an hour on and we are still in bed with a cup of tea/coffee. First stop today will be Elizabeth for a Ozzie SIM card and mobile wifi for our trip next week but no rushing round today, let's see where the day takes us.
 
It she was a late start never got out till gone 11am, then it was off to to the shops at Elizabeth, all the roads here are named after the royal family and they are now just constructing a new Primce George Plaza . Bought a sim for my now old Ozzie phone and the guy reckons it will also work in my UK iPhone so when we got back I decided to give it a try but no, just said sim locked so on our way to the Barrosa we stopped at the shop again and he looked but said it's the phone that's locked. Oh well my trusty old one still works.
 
Next it was off to Tanundra to visit some friends of my cousin, luckily they were in as we'd tried to call earlier without success. Unfortunately they do not allow dogs in the house so we tied Winston to a chair on the veranda and went inside for a drink, then I noticed Winston walk by the back window, somehow he managed to get out of his harness and was off up the road as they have no fences, Paul got him back and we decided it was time to head off.
 
First stop was to look at Stonewell Cottages where our friends stayed on their last trip and it was just lovely, never actually found the owners house but we did see the Hideaway Cottage so picturesque we had thought of maybe going there for a couple of days at the end of our trip but haven't sorted anything our yet and at present it looks quite full, we will see.
 
We definetly need to plan our days better because we found out that by now all the wineries were closed, bad news. So we then decided to stop at the bakery in Lindoch for afternoon tea, but foiled again they too were shut so it was straight back to Salisbury Park. Now relaxing with a coffee at home.

Love the picture with the blue flower, lake and bridge. Glad you didn't lose the dog.
