Fleurieu Peninsula

Hi Folks,
I have the most remarkable story to tell. I needed a taxi in Adelaide on Monday, and as the cabbie was driving to my appointment , we chatted, as you do, and to cut a long story short, he mentioned that his sister had treatment at the hospital where I was going, (for breast cancer and she died last year) and that it was really sad because his sister and her husband had had a son who committed suicide and the husband , ( and here he said a name - Kim), was barely coping, etc bla bla bla. I sort of clicked into this info and said Kim? and the cabbie said yeah Kim Barclay , and it was my cousin!!! How is that 400 or more taxi drivers in Adelaide and Iget in with my cousins' brother in law!! I tell you it made my hair stand on end. So he gave me his card, and off i went to my appointment. Then my phone went flat, and I had to ring the cabbie to ring my cousin to come and pick me up. What a coincidence!
Any way my cousin and I have got on like a house on fire.  He lost his wife last year, so we have a lot in common. He is living in a caravan permanently, so we are hanging out with each other for a while. We went down to Mclaren Vale, for a few days and hit a few wineries for a taste. yum. Then on further down the Fleurieu Peninsula to Wirrina Cove Resort, (it is a long weekend, and that was all we could get into), did a trip over to Victor Harbor, and tomorrow are off to Goolwa, to visit his brother who I haven't seen for about 40years, and also to see the mouth of the Murray River flowing into the sea. It has been hot and now it is cold again, with possibility of showers. I am seriously considering an invite I have received, to go on a houseboat on the Murray with friends Adele and Geoff, for another week , It is such a relaxing life. I also might meet some south australian motorhomers at Port Eliot next weekend. Kim needs to go visit his inlaws at Keith, and we will catch up again a bit later. So all in all it has been a leisurely week. Which is what it should all be about.
Keep well and good luck with the Jakpot lotto. until next week love vicki
