It's very early in the morning and we're in the Qantas lounge at Adelaide airport, having said our goodbyes to Kelly and Chris last night. It's the start of the long haul for us. We fly to Sydney, where we have a long wait before the next flight to Singapore, arriving there late tonight Singapore time, having gained a few hours on the world clock.
We leave Singapore on Monday night and are due back in Aberdeen at 8:20 on Tuesday morning - then it's back to work for me.
We've had a very quiet last couple of days - just wandering round from park bench to park bench, trying to stay in the shade whilst we read our books. This is a typical scene:
The river Torrens is just hidden from view past the long reeds. This photo was taken on Wednesday and we had lunch nearby, finishing off the remnants from our fridge, washed down by some of the nice beers that Kelly gave me for my birthday - I'd carried them to the park in the James Squire stubby holder that Kelly also gave me.
We went to the Garden of Unearthly Delights - the focal point of the Fringe - on Wednesday night, and we all went veggie in sympathy with Kelly (who's now vegan), eating from this stand:
Yesterday (Thursday) was even lazier - a walk round the parks as usual in the morning, then lunch at the new Store opposite, then we packed and just hung around the apartment until Kelly and Chris arrived after work. I snuck outside the apartment briefly to read my book:
Dinner was at the Lion, the restaurant/pub attached to our apartments. That's all for now.
