Jan 8 Port Adelaide
Hi mates!
Just another hot hot hot day here in Oz. I managed to bike over to my school today before it got over 40 and the ride took about 20 minutes. It's only a 15 minute ride to the beach at Glenelg.Hmmmm......
So I did the tourist thing today and went up to a section of Adelaide called Port Adelaide. It is another beautiful beach area. There were lots and lots of sail boats out today. I am going to post a pic of boats to make my brother in law Todd drool. Enjoy. The Port is a working port and there was a cruise ship at dock. Wow.
I am also posting a pic of yesterday's lunch-I had salt and pepper crocodile for lunch! Which I decided is much better than the other way around. Amelia I am not sure if it was a freshie or a saltie but it tasted right some good! I think my next culinary delight will be kangaroo. It is sold in the grocery stores here but I want to see how a professional chef prepares it before I attempt to. I have discovered that a can of coke is $3.20 and a bottle of Lindeman's Cabernet Merlot is $4.99.Now I know why the Aussie's are so laid back-they don't drink coke! Tomorrow I am going on my first wine tour. I booked through the RAA (Royal Auto Ass) they let me use my CAA card for discounts-so remember that if you come to visit and you are a CAA member-bring your card! The tour is in the Borassa Valley region.I have to be downtown early to catch the tour so I will shove off now.
G'day eh!
love,
Bernadine
