Adelaide

Had a great day in Adelaide today caught the tram down to Glenelg to have a bit of a look around...such a pretty place...came back up into the city as Ethan had decided that he wanted to buy a camera with his Christmas money, there was a camera that he wanted at Harvey Norman that was reduced heavily but the city store didn't have all of the package, so I drove him out to Noarlunga to pick it up...a 60 klm round trip....
Came back to the hotel and again we had not stopped for lunch, while he played around with his camera I popped into the Central Markets to pick something up to eat...they had some amazing things the fruit and veg was fabulous...lots of different meats...was wandering down the aisles and came across Poh, I was a bit starstruck as I have always thought that she should have won the first series of Masterchef...had a photo taken with her at her shop and she was just lovely....so were all the staff...as I left, there was another lady waiting with her son...she said to me if you can do it so can I...
Went back to the Aboriginal shop to buy a tablecloth that I liked, I wanted a different one but they didn't have it in our table size...got the one that I did want as a tablecloth in a table runner size and picked up another table runner that was on clearance. So half of my Christmas money got spent as well...
Walked back up to the city to pick up a few things that Dan wanted to get, we did wait for the tram but when it pulled up it was packed so we decided to walk up there...found one of those $2.80 shops and picked up a few things, one of them was some Ritz bits little ritz biscuits with a vanilla centre...they are very good, can't show you cause they are all gone....
Had dinner at Pepper Lunch it was so so good, I had pepper chicken with no pepper...I know it is not right is it...Dan had Pepper steak and Greg had pepper prawns, Ethan went back to the room as he wanted to watch the cricket and he was going to get Subway which was closed so he sent me a message to get him something on our way back...he ended up having the same as what I had but back in the room...The boys have changed rooms as their air conditioner was playing up and they couldn't fix it...they are now only a few rooms away from us...we are heading out after the cricket for Ethan to have a play with his camera....off to Mildura tomorrow...

Out the front of our hotel...

Tram coming down the tracks...

How cool is the grass on the inside of the tracks...

Inside the tram to Glenelg.

Yep this was a tad confusing, one was for the bike lane...

Lolly shop in one of the arcades.

Dan had Poutine ( a Canadian dish) for lunch, it was hot chips on the bottom, then cheese curd and then bolognese sauce, parmesan and parsley on top...

This is the florist display,  the flowers were all put away for the night... 

Ladies undies in the $2.80 shop..."Ladies Shorts" then underneath that "Everyone has romantic feelings" what the!!!!

Don't you love a good arm cover...

Toilet paper cover...have you ever heard of the toilet being called a " Relax Room"...

Gotta love a good translation.

Dan wanted me to buy him a That....

Bit out of order but it's a tram of course...

Winner, winner chicken dinner...Pepper Lunch, there is one in Sydney...if you get a chance try it it's really really good...
