Australia Day 7-- Adelaide

Arrived to the airport after having to catch a cab to the bus station with enough time to drop my bags and buy some breakfast. Boarded and passed out against the window.

Arrived into Adelaide and found my way to the bus stop where I waited about 30 minutes for a bus to brin me to the shopping center where tony was going to pick me up. After only about 3 hours of sleep I was exhausted. Got the bus facebook was tony and waited at the shopping center about 20 minutes for him. We dropped my bags at his house and headed to the city center for a look through the market.

The plan was to tour the am and make some dinner and camp out on the beach and watch the sunset. The problem was it was only about 60 degrees which is way too cold to swim. So we went to the indoor market complete with fresh everything. Grabbed a coffee, which woke me up a little. Picked up some tomatoes and onions and bread to make bruschetta later then went back to semaphore which is the suburb right along the beach where tony lives. We stopped for a flatbread for breakfast complete with eggs ham cheese and aioli. Mmmm. The. I was ready for a power nap. It's cold out anyway and I did see the center of Adelaide. 


Slept for about an hour and a half then we decided to enjoy the afternoon by listening to pandora and watching some cricket while having some lemonade vodkas. Went to the beach for sunset and it was horribly windy. This beach is very shallow so it keeps the great whites away. Just the baby ones can make it that shallow. The rest wait beyond the drop off. (Yup. Did not go swimming)

After sunset we called it pretty early as I had a 630 am flight to catch so we set up my taxi to the airport and called it a night.
