In Adelaide

We have been in Adelaide for 2 nights already.
We arrived on Tuesday evening at George and Kirsty's. Ciara was absolutely wrapped with having more than just an evening out of the car, though she has had a funny day today.
On the trip from Port Lincoln to Adelaide we were going to use the Ferry from Lucky Bay across and save driving about 350 kms via Port Augusta. WEhilst waiting for the ferry, I asked what time can we check in, we were early though and was told that it was in for its annual service until Friday. Just our luck the week we want to use it.
So we had to drive all the way around the gulf, we decided to do it and get it done instead of staying in a hotel for another night.
We arrived at George and Kirsty's by about 5;30pm, Kirsty warned us about traffic, but if that was traffic and for Adelaide apparently it is, I wish I was always in that little traffic, but then we are in Adelaide and the "heavy" traffic was still flowing at the allowed speed limit.
Yesterday we had a walk around the foreshore of Glenelg North, where Kirsty lives and it seems very nice area to live.
Today we went in to Rundell Mall and had a look around, we ended up buying a new camera, my birthday present, and I am very happy with the limited time I have had to play with it so far. It is a Lumix (Panasonic) DMC-TZ6. With 12x optical zoom and 10.1 megapixels.
Also tonight we went out for dinner to the Glenelg Surf Club, I had an extra hot beef vindaloo, but it wasn't that hot but still nice.
