From (wi-fi less) Robe we made our way to the wine region of Barrossa Valley where Jacob's Creek is. We stayed at the Novotel Resort which is in the middle of nowhere but has lots of facilities. We took the opportunity to just relax for a couple of hours by the pool.
We had a studio room which was really nice and had a good view over the valley.
We gave ourselves plenty of time to get to the airport this morning and left the hotel at 7.30am and it was already 26 degrees. The journey caused Chris a bit of anxiety because we didn't see any sights en route for the airport and he was convinced that the sat nav was wrong. In the end we made it safely and had plenty of time to get something to eat before our flight. I'm using the free wi-fi at the airport as they wanted $26 to use it at the Novotel resort. We;re now on our way to Alice Springs and expecting temperatures in the forties again. I'm not looking forward to the heat.
It's Chris' birthday today and we have a hot air balloon ride booked for the morning over the outback. Not sure how I'll cope with the height! I'll let you know.
