Trial Trip
This is a top pick! Our practice trip with the camper to Streaky Bay and Coffin Bay started off with a few hitches like not being able to get the fridge hooked up. If it weren't for my Dad, we would have had to eat take-aways the whole time. Also a couple of water leakages ...
Glenelg Beach
... so it gets a lot of Antarctic water. Cold, but I had to go ahead and get in for a bit. Couldn't come all that way and then wimp out because of a little chill. The beach itself was nice, and Glenelg is a nice little suburb of ...

... the year and enjoy a few bottles of wine (bought the day before) to get us in the New Years Eve spirit. We returned to a packed Glenelg in the evening and walked past the live stage on the beach front to find a bar. They were all very busy but as we ...
Tattoo Me
The burly, shaven-headed biker with a needle in my back chuckles when he explains that he's not allowed to travel to Canada or the US because he once shot a man. "The motherfucker deserved it," he reasons. Hells Angels posters cover the wall above me, in ...
A helping hand
... to try to understand what people are saying to him. His English isn't terribly good. He's been sent here alone, all the way to Australia, as part of a course of study to learn about wine growing. And I do feel sorry for him. Most people are here by ...
Mi ultima dia in South America...... for now

Glen Elg
... several fridges and storage areas. All doors have meaty locks on them and fire exit routes are clearly displayed - plainly South Australia is a place where rules and regulations are taken seriously. By those making the rules perhaps. And I am quick to ...
Last Few Days in Adelaide
Hey! We had another exciting Wine Tasting adventure yesterday (Sunday) here in the Adelaide Area... We went into the Clare Valley this time as they were having their Gourmet Weekend up there. Basically heaps of people between the ages of 18 and 60 ...
Adelaide misunderstood

Its jumping time
... . The gang wanted to go to the beach, so we board shorted up and hopped on the tram. 20mins later, we were in Glenelg, a self sufficient town with a huge beach stretching along the coast. We treated ourselves to a cheap, lunchtime Maccy D's, then hit the ...
Leaving Adelaide, third attempt
... from the UK. Through the open window, we can all hear the music drifting across the city from the 'Big Day Out' - Australia's yearly live music festival that happens in all the big cities simultaneously. We know it's fantastically expensive to get a ...
Touristy Week
... WINE TASTING!!! How posh and grown up are we?! Today was a new and fun experience for Jenny and I. Seeing as we are in South Australia 'home to some of the best wine growing country in the world' we figured that we should go and taste some of the local ...
Leaving Adelaide, first attempt
... '. I cut back on my spending a little and make some visits to the supermarket - which is where you'll find most backpackers in Australia. Lurking around the meat counters, waiting for the ' mark-downs ' at about 5 o'clock. I change my phone's SIM card ...
City of Churches.....??
... , I was glad to disembark into the fresh Adelaide air to wander Rundle St, the Botanical Gardens and tram to the Stamford Hotel in Glenelg. Being known as the City of Churches, I attended PJ O'brien's (just 900 k's from my local PJ's!) and gave thanks to ...
Leaving Adelaide, second attempt
Continued from ; A helping hand I drive to the Mount Lofty range of hills through the time-warp town of Hahndorf. Which could be in Germany. With a small pack, I take the Heydon trail - albeit in the wrong direction, and after several hours the sky ...
Glenelg
... outside today (actually it's not today but tomorrow, the 17th), beautiful day for travelobloging! Today (actually yesterday) I went to Glenelg, a small village with a nice promenade along the coast. You reach it with a 30 minutes train, the vintage one ...
Windy beach...
... etc. I decided to walk on the path and lie on a bench and catch up on my tan that has been non-existent. Then I walked downtown Glenelg (you can read this word both ways and its the same) and saw some shops and went to see where the Best Western was. Its ...
Fun in the sun
... , when I arrived in Adelaide, I was bag-less. Now if you don't know, the only bag I have is a backpack. Everything I have in Australia is in that backpack. And I don't have it. I am wearing a black cotton shirt and pants and it is 38 degree ...
Back at the beach
... day we were planning to move on anyway. From Robe we drove on to Kingston S.E. (there's two places called Kingston in South Australia) for some of their famous fish and chips. The rest of the day we drove a beautiful stretch of the Prince's highway ...
Damn, it's hot
Hey everyone, I thought I would split this up. This one will be short. I think I have recovered from the jet lag. I am in a beach town away from Adelaide by about 10 minutes. It's really nice and small, but hot. The beach is gorgeous ...
A NIGHT IN THE WILDERNESS
... no nearby walking tracks to enjoy so we made the decision to move on. With the weather still precarious, we decided to leave our little paradise and pursue our next destination which will take us out of the state of Victoria and into South ...
Australia, Baby!

Back up and running!
... on, the kids were really interested. I don't think they realised how big surf lifesaving is in other states around Australia nor how young they start competition. We woke to another lovely day in Adelaide, I managed to fit in a ...
