31 July 2014

Right now, this morning was all about going to the National Motor Museum in Birdwood, so not a long drive from Adelaide, but wow those South Australian drivers have some interesting ways about them. It took a bit longer to get out into the hills than I imagined it would, though to be honest it didn't really matter as I was there an hour before the Museum opened anyway, so plenty of time to have a look around the little town, which is a very nice little tourist town, as you'd expect in the Adelaide Hills. The museum was as it usually is and is a really good clean and tidy venue and the cars all look good and looked after, rather than ruff and dusty like some "museums" I have been to, such a wide variety of cars and motorbikes there too, which is great!














And they even let me put the Count on the forecourt for a pic before I left.


The it was time to head home so followed a few country roads 60km from Birdwood through to Murray Bridge, which is a some what large town, though still a country centre. I didn't get much time to take pictures there as it was here that the rain started again and it stayed with us all the way, it was not the most exciting of drives and made for a long day. I finally gave up 355km later at Horsham, as it was dark and still raining and I would have had another 4-5 hours of it before getting back to Melbourne and home.


  Here comes the rain again.

Tomorrow it is back home to Melbourne...
