We had a very ordinary dinner last night at the local pub in Nuriootpa (try saying that after a couple of sherbets). When we got in the Jeep to drive home water was pouring down from the roof. First thing this morning we looked up the nearest Jeep dealer only to find it is within walking distance of our caravan park. How lucky was that? The Jeep is still with the dealer drying out after they discovered a drain from the sunroof was blocked.
The rain eased off by lunchtime so we walked around Nuriootpa and found a German butcher who makes all of his gluten free smallgoods. The local supermarket and hardware store are operated by a cooperative which puts a lot of money back into the community.
Tomorrow we are going to Maggie Beer's Farm Shop for lunch. The weather forecast is not what you want when living in a caravan - possible flooding rains, strong winds and hail. So far the rain has been minimal up near Lake Eyre so the roads are still not affected.
