Aussie trip - Sydney & Adelaide








We arived in Sydney on 23/9 , after being diverted through Brisbane, in the worst sand storm seen there in living momory ! But we were `rescued ` at Sydney airport by Katy's dad Murray and whisked up to Bateau Bay. After a wonderfully relaxing 3 days staying in Murray and Judy's home there , we did a one way car hire and returned to Sydney to fly to Adelaide. Catherine , Fiona and Matt laid on a welcome party for us and entertained us magnificently, first based at Catherine's house in Adelaide and then at her farm an hour or so north at Mount Pleasant.Hopefully we made some useful contribution to the list of jobs Catherine had prepared ( at our insistence ).
