After having about a week with our beautiful friends in Adelaide we head off towards towards the small town of Berri. Before Berri we stopped at Greenoch and caught up with some friends that we had met in Melrose. They took us around the Barossa Valley where all the wine is grown.   We didnt buy any but interesting visiting the grand buildings.


This where they made all the Berri fruit juices. We took time to go and buy some tin fruit and fruit juice,as they had seconds for sale and by seconds it was mainly to do with the labels nothing wrong with the actually product. Berri also had one of the best caravans we had stayed in as it was lovely and clean withgreen grass. This is in Berri under the bridge showing art work of the Aborignals.

The next day we took a trip out to see an old musuem at the  small settlement of Loxton. Here Bob is in docks but lucky for him there was no fruit around.  But he got me back by locking me in prison.








 
It was a good day wondering around trying all the old things out Bob even trying to get so fuel for us to drive home. People back then must have had a harigrants. It began to boom whend time back them. Especially having to wear those beautiful long dresses then working outside in the mud and dirt. But also back in that time people pulled together as a family. So computer gadgets has taken alot of that away. The front of a winery just outside of Loxton.  Loxton was originally settled by German immigrants. It began to boom when the returned servicemen returned from world war 2.


Back to Berri for another couple of days taking day trips out. Next will be Renmark.
