From the hotel at Glenelg (a night away having been a present from Geoff's work, but quite frankly, not worth what they paid for it - and the hotel tried to bill us directly because the name on the boss' credit card didn't match the name the room was booked under) south along the foreshore to meet Susanne at North Brighton (Lachlan's grandma's). Last night while walking along the beach with Geoff, I had thought about how I like the ocean when it's stormy. Didn't even voice the thought, but I surely got my wish this morning! The bottom was absolutely dropping out of the sky and the runoff flowing nearly to the rim of the gutters along the Esplanade. I would have won any wet t-shirt competition, and unfortunately dripped all over Fern's car, which we drove to Eden Hills to leave it at Wilpena St.
We then ran back to North Brighton via Flinders Uni, Sturt Ck and Oaklands Pk Station, which took about an hour. Rain had mostly stopped by the bottom of the hill. Pavement was a bit hard on my legs but they held up ok even for the last 20 min by myself back along the beach to Glenelg.
