Adelaide

Got to Adelaide! We are staying in Glenelg, but somehow ended up 2.5kms from the beach. This AirBNB thing is completely hit and miss if you don't have time to fire off prior questions. It's a bit industrial, but nice inside. Me and the boys went for an evening walk to see the cycle path, and big grassy strip in the middle of one of the roads.
Today walked into Glenelg and the beach. Got Metro cards for the local trams, bus and train. Walked around eating and viewing. Louis and Marie went on the ferris wheel. Caught the tram home.
Kids day off - Ollie and Louis had a lazy day on devices while me and Marie went to the city. 
Adelaide is a well designed city that hasn't been destroyed too much.
Stopped for a coffee, went to a vintage second hand and upcycled clothing shop - chatted to the mother of the owner for about an hour, then I ran off to get a pair of boots direct from the Rossi factory. 
The Adelaide Arcade
After we chatted to the lady at A Rare Notion.


I ran off to get some boots. Missed a train from town as it rolled off the platform, next one was 36 minutes later, argh. Got to the factory eventually. Marie searched around and got a haircut. Asked for layering, but ended up with a straight bob. Not a bad relaxing day.
