So this morning's breakfast blog comes from the Qantas lounge at Adelaide airport. We've checked in, gone through security and said our farewells to Kelly and Chris, who drove us to the airport.
Yesterday we got our packing and washing organised then walked down to the Parade for a coffee at Buongiorno, with the additional treat of mini-marshmallows from Nic & Rocco (http://www.nicandrocco.com.au/), conveniently located next door to the cafe:
We had lunch - chicken salad - back at Donegal St, where we were joined by Lorene and David, who were in the city for another check-up on David's eye. He's much better now and all seems to be well thankfully.
After David and Lorene left to go home, 4 of us (all bar Chris) went to the movies again to see Hitch. It's pretty well done and Anthony Hopkins' impersonation of the Master of Suspense is very good, but I hadn't realised that it's based on a book about the making of Psycho, so there's no more than passing mention of Hitchcock's other great films.
Our "last supper" with Kelly and Chris was some beautiful - and huge - salmon steaks, smothered in pesto sauce - delicious. We'll miss them - but they get to have their home - and their lives - back again after being invaded by us over the last 3 weeks - it's never easy and we appreciate the upheaval it can cause. Looking forward to seeing them again - in Scotland - at Christmas.
Next stop Kuala Lumpur. There's a cyclone to the west of Australia that we'll have to bypass, but we should be in KL about 3 pm local time today (Friday).
