We had to get up quite early to drop off the car, especially seeing that we expected that it may take a bit longer. During our travels we had, at some point, received a rock to the windscreen and discovered a small chip.
The folks at Hertz were awesome and relaxed about it. Our insurance was through a third party (long story), so we would have to pay for repairs in advance and I had to leave my credit card number with them. They expected about $200 tops.
We were on our way only a few minutes later and checked in. While waiting for our flight I received a phone call: The damage was considered pre-existing so my card number had been deleted. Fantastic!
A couple of hours of flight….
… and we arrived back in Adelaide, where my grandmother picked us up and we arrived at my parents place in time for coffee and cake… And for some giant 60th birthday balloons which we totally didn’t muck around with….
Eventually the cake was cut… Luckily all fingers stayed attached!
After catching up for a bit and having some dinner we drove home, because tomorrow would be an early start!
