Out last couple of days have been fairly relaxing. We went and checked out the little town of Strathalbyn just to the north of us. What a beautiful little place it was. It was just full of historical houses and it was a pleasure to walk around it. The local Anzac park is just a gem and a real credit to the town. It has a little stream running through it and an Anzac memorial in the middle. From there you can also see a very impressive church that overlooks the park. Housing was fairly expensive though, with prices up around the $350,000 mark. A lot really for a tiny rural town.
Took a bit of a tour around the area, through the wine growing area, but all of the vines have already been stripped of their grapes so that was fairly uneventful. Called into another very small beachside village called Milang. Nothing really there except for a huge flock of pelicans all huddled together.
Had our last look around the town yesterday, and not too soon I think. I am really quite concerned about Deb at this moment, and quite worried about my future. She walked into a Mens Barber shop yesterday and, as blatantly as you could imagine, she asked the male barber if he did women. He exact words "do you do women". He was quite taken aback and will probably never be the same again. (has nothing to do with the fact Deb wants a haircut.)
Despite the fact I have to watch Deb at all times now, we still went to the pub for dinner last night. They had a great schnitzel night and it only cost $12. For your information, Deb was on her best behaviour and didn't make lewd approaches to any other locals.
Had our final look at Victor Harbour this morning. What a great location that is. I could just imagine how it would get over run with tourists during the summer months. The outlook over the ocean is just incredible. You could really get used to seeing all of these great sights.
Anyway must be off now. Will speak in a couple of days when we are in Adelaide.
Barry and Deb.
