No time for Keith......

Once again, we woke up to an overcast day, but no time to worry about that we had a 343 kilometre and 4 hour drive in front of us to get to Adelaide Airport as tomorrow we start the relaxing part of our holiday with 3 nights on Kangaroo Island. There was one stop I would have liked to have made, and that is Keith in South Australia and a slight (50 kilometre detour). Unfortunately, after stopping at the Big Lobster 🦞 for a photo 📸 stop (but not at the tractor 🚜 museum), we put ME into the Sat-nav, and being Keith, it managed to get confused 😕. From being a 30-minute detour, the sat-nav added another 3 hours onto our journey. So I never went to see me 😪
After driving about 2 1/2 hours, in the Sunday traffic rush we came across our first town and an inviting cafe so we stopped for a coffee ☕️ and a breakfast wrap 😋 in a little seaside town called Meningie. After stopping for our break, the traffic seemed to really build up as we had a car 🚗 🚗 in front of us 😆. We finally arrived at Adelaide Airport 🛫, at check-in, they told us that the Avis car rental was about 100 metres away, so another result. After driving 🚗 1,362 kilometres or 851 miles from Melbourne to Phillip Island 🏝, upto Sorrento, a ferry ⛴️ crossing to Geelong then finally along the Great Ocean Road; which unfortunately wasn't that great, mainly due to the weather and probably our expectations we are now at Adelaide Airport, carless and relaxing with a beer 🍺 in the sunshine 🌞Read more
