Images around Adelaide

I've got lots and lots of things to post, here are a few items that I've found taken by my phone. Sorry about the quality, but these are some of the best parts of Adelaide.


There is a waterfall walk that includes koalas, almost guaranteed. When MaryEd came to visit, we took her to this walk and saw 3 at least. A gradual walk, and a little boardwalk that turns a corner before you see this. It is pretty dramatic, especially 15 min drive from the city.






An area known as Rundle Mall is a closed off street with lots of shops. Included in the area are lots of art pieces including this one. They must be shinned regularly because you can try, but its impossible not to touch.








During one of the many festivals, someone built this huge cork bottle. It really trumps any of the recycled trivets or cork boards I ever attempted. Look how tall! I'm not sure how they did it, but it was pretty awesome to witness.








One of the restored historic structures on Rundle is Adelaide Arcade. It has an amazing tied floor and fantastic boutiques including one store dedicated completely to buttons. A must see for Adelaide visitors.






With a friend, Jo, and some of her friends, we went to a roller derby. I've only ever seen these on TV or in the movies. The women are much more realistic, and it can get rough, but overall really good fun. I'd go back, especially with a group of friends.
