Adelaide

After slumming it in Melbourne in hostel accomodation we have returned to luxury in Adelaide where we are being put up by my Aunty Jenny and Uncle Warren in their new house.
We spent the first day trawling round the old neighbourhood where I used to live while I reminisced about the 'Good 'ole days' and pointed out things I remembered to an uninterested Rachael! After that we went to visit my Aunty Faye and Sylvia in Eden Hills who took us out for a lovely lunch before driving us down to the beachfront at Glenelg for a wander around.

We went to a restuarant called Genki on Saturday night where we had our first try of Japanese cuisine. As resident gastronome I feel entirely qualified to say it was all lovely, Rachael was a little unsure of the sushi but apart from that enjoyed it. I also caught up with cousin Kelly which was great. She is currently in the throws of starting her own clothing empire and is selling stuff on ebay at the moment which you can view here:

We went off Sunday morning to Clayton where Aunty Jenny and Uncle Warren keep their yacht 'Passing Cloud' and spent a lovely day drifting down with the wind to Goolwa. We moored up there, had a wander around a lovely little Sunday market, a cuppa in a local cafe before making our way back to Clayton. Me and Rachael both helped out with our inneffectual seamanship which consisted mainly of pulling things when we were told to and steering the boat a bit wonky! We then spent the night in Clayton in Aunty Jenny and Uncle Warren's lovely little unit where we promptly fell asleep after a days dillydallying on the waves.

Despite doing little more on Monday apart from travelling back to Adelaide and popping into town briefly we were both pooped and took another early night in preparation for our trip to Broken Hill the following day - life's hard sometimes!
