Highlights of Adelaide - August 2015




At the restaurant next door to our Hotel



War Memorials


Museum (is much effort larger inside than it looks outside)


My birthday present from the Apple Store in Adelaide



At the Botanical Gardens (before the rain set in)


Peter at the Adelaide Oval - pouring rain


Swimming pool on the roof of the Stamford Plaza Hotel (far too cold for swimming)



Map of Adelaide - our hotel (Stamford Plaza) was centrally situated walking distance from the Adelaide Oval, Botanical Gardens, museum, shops and restaurants.


We were unlucky enough to get bad weather while we were in Adelaide.  That did not stop us from looking around as most things were walking distance and there is a free bus service that loops around the city so we could get a good overview.

It was 14 degrees with an icy wind of the most of the time we were in Adelaide so luckily there were places we could visit where we could get out of the weather.  The museum was good and we did a tour inside the Adelaide Oval sporting facilities which was very interesting.

I was delighted to come across an Apple Store while we were checking out the shopping centre of Adelaide. Peter weakened and bought me an Apple Watch for my birthday which I just love.
