The drive off Adelaide

Time for Hahndorf winery! Today I took the wheel :)

Is it the start of spring? 9 August, 2013

The day we collected the car and all ready for the road ride! All excited and anxious as it seems for this road ride. I was so looking forward to it till the moment we had a glimpse of the car and finally getting to drive it. We headed first for Mount Lofty Summit. From Adelaide, it was approximately 20 minutes for a ride to Mount Lofty. 

15km from Adelaide, Mount Lofty Summit

Panorama of the Mount Lofty Summit

Mount Lofty has been a “must see” destination for any visitor to South Australia, like what is stated on their website. The moment I reached, I was prepared to catch a bird’s eye view, capturing a panoramic view from the landing of the peak for which is 710 metres above sea level! This spectacular view must not be missed. Above is panorama of the Adelaide’s highest peak.

Sight of Koalas! 

Morning of 9 August

The much recommended Haigh's Chocolates
Pretty much love its macadamia nut chocolate and truffles!

Gloria Jean's Coffees

Before setting off to collect our car for the days ahead, we need to fulfill our stomachs’ crave for a satisfying breakfast! There are several choices when it comes to chilling out at cafes. We finally decided to head for Gloria Jean’s Coffees, a place close to our hearts. 

Strange enough tho, I have never once settled at any of Gloria Jean’s Coffees joint found locally in Singapore! This time, made my first step to its café. Gloria Jean’s Coffees originated in Australia and is still expected to expand with more than 400 coffee houses.

Settling down for our orders

Now you see it!

My choice of flat white (Steamed milk + Espresso coffee) as usual to perk the mornings :p

Additional cravings on my breakfast list:

Chicken Deli Sandwich

Lemon Tart

Guess what! 2 white police horses came by while we were indulging in our wholesome breakfast : J

White charming horses. What a surprise!

breakfast with excellent companions!
