Roadtrip to the footy

After reading through a few #IBOT posts last night, I got onto cooking cupcakes for the photo day/morning tea at kindy tomorrow. It's not usually a kindy day for us, I'd have rather bummed around the house than had to be there at a quarter to 9 on our 'day off'. Oh well.

While the cupcakes cooked I uploaded these photos from our weekend in Adelaide. Twas a good one, except for the bit on Mother's day on the way home, where I sat in the back squished between two car seats with my annoying darling children either side.

It was like a little holiday. Except when we got home, I felt like I really need a holiday. Alone!

We stopped in Kingston, across the road from the Big Lobster to eat our ham sandwiches. The girls ate chips.

So glad my boy decided to come with us.

On our way home, Mother's Day. We stopped at the Hahndorf Farm Barn. Rubber boots
is the best footwear. You tread on a lot of poo.

Summer was fearless. I was worried the goats were going to eat her jumper off her back!

See the paper feed bag. A deer would later take it and eat it, food, paper and all! It was hilarious.

Bloody rain and stinky cheese.

We've just been away for the weekend in the Adelaide Hills. Perfect spot to getaway, as long as it doesn't piss down pour with rain the ENTIRE time.

Thursday, while travelling. Sunset on the Coorong.

The weather was fine on Thursday when we left, we set up the caravan, and hooray for us, in the dark and in record time. 

About 3 am on Friday morning it started raining, and didn't stop until the time we left.

We did and saw the things we wanted to, but it would have been so much easier, and much more enjoyable, especially with the kids, if it wasn't wet. We had our routine of getting the kids in and out of the car down pat in the end.

Friday morning, and it didn't stop, ALL DAY! (don't be
fooled by the blue, it's just the shade strip on the windscreen..
no blue sky here people)

We spent most of Saturday afternoon in the Hahndorf Inn with Brett's sister and her family, drinking wine and picking at a fruit and cheese platter. I was the one cutting dried apricots in half and sandwiching in a chunk of blue cheese. Quite nice, no one else was going near the stinky cheese though.

Eating the bits no one wants. 

Highly recommend this pub on a cold, rainy day with kids. We scored a table near the open fire and right in front of the kids play room. It made for a very relaxing laid back afternoon. The place was packed, as Hahndorf is on a weekend, and tables were filling up as soon as they were emptied, so we were lucky.

We plan on going back again, so we can leisurely stroll the streets and shops when it isn't RAINING.

Do you eat stinky cheese? 

Have any shocker holidays, when you should have stayed home?
