Day 5, 22 Dec 2008: Pt Augusta to Adelaide

Map:  "A" marks Snowtown

A short day's travel today, just about 300km.

Near the town of Snowtown was a wind farm and we stopped at the town to see a display of one of the windmill wings.

Snowtown is also infamous for the "Bodies in the Acid Barrels" serial killings.

These barrels were stored in the vault of a disused bank till they were discovered in 1999.

We walked around the little town looking for the disused bank building and, from memory of the newspaper pictures, picked this one.

Note the Christmas decoration on the lamp post.  A later check with Google images showed that we were right.

In Adelaide, we were guests of Cheryl's sister in the surburb of Crafers in the Adelaide Hills.

Below is a beautiful view from her kitchen window.

And we had a restful afternoon with the chooks...

...and dog.
