... two out of 55 passengers and crew survived. Three months was the average duration of the voyage from England from where almost all the early immigrants to Australia originated from. It was common in that period that working men in Australia were allowed a nine month leave after 7 years work. Three months to return home to England. Three months to visit family and friends and three months to get back to Australia. Some of todays union contracts still ...
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia samndoug... rather than rounded corrugations, usually green and fairly elegant, yet others with low stone or brick walls, . There were several trees in bloom and many flowers. In the evening I worked on the computer preparing score sheets for the Cellars of the World Competition.and on booking our trip to Kangaroo Island and Victor Harbor.
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia acctaste... your car from apex park, you do a tightrope act on the white lines in the carpark. § You catch a cold from having the aircon full blast while you sleep during the night. § You learn that Centro plaza isn't a shopping centre it's a temple to worship air-conditioning. § Sticking your head into the freezer and taking deep breaths is perfectly normal behaviour. § A cup full of ice is ...
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia big_papi... years old and Dylan is 6 years old. The kids got on like they had known each other for years which was great. On Friday 23 January 2009 we looked into getting our awning repaired or replaced due to the fabric delamination at Port Broughton and slowly on the trip to Adelaide it was tearing everywhere. We found a repairer who suggested that we organize this through insurance, which we made the claim for, the same day. As it was ...
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia p18130... 8242; Motorhome, with a dog inside and four more sleeping just out your door. It was great fun and I hope to do it again. But not for 4 months straight. Not ever. We parked the more spacious 5th wheel at an ecological reserve/rv park on the St.Lawrence River,Thousand Island area for almost 6 months and stayed there about half of the time.My Mom and siblings all live in that corner of Canada and it was nice to get together and see some nieces and nephews that I had previous only ...
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia heligypsy... an hour and it taking longer since we have to drive through traffic lights again! The drive from Coober Pedy to Port Augusta was fun, we drove through desert for a long time, but it was where they filmed mad max =) and nearly (!!) filmed star wars (it looks like it could have been filmed there lol there isnt much there apart from sand and rocks, just random how they advertise ...
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia christinaukHey all, My adventure begins at check in. I arrived with my parents at the recommended three hours early for check in. At the United counter, the lady informs me I have a middle seat and if I would like to change it, show up at the gate at 8:15pm. I grabbed a drink with my parents and ordered food and then ran to the gate to be the first in line. When 8:45pm reached, I about gave up because I knew I had a beer and the last sushi ...
Glenelg, Australia hbomb1... hostel for dinner. Times must be hard indeed as we tuck into the classic backpacker meal which some will eat for weeks on end - pasta with tuna and sweet corn. Or sometimes just the pasta. Yuck. The three of us also take full advantage of some free entertainment one evening - there's a big firework display in one of the many outlying parks. And another travelling coincidence happens. I sit in Caroline and Grant's communal lounge area waiting for pennies to be scraped ...
Glenelg, South Australia, Australia gerry_goosehart... will not do. Can I at least indicate the tariff for certain services in different currencies ? What about visas. Border crossings. All the transport options. I begin to fade out. I don't want to be Adelaide's human travel encyclopedia any longer. I wish Denis all the very best as I check out. He is currently in a heightened state of anxiety on the subject of bush spiders. Poor lad. Next ; Leaving Adelaide, second attempt
Glenelg, South Australia, Australia gerry_goosehart... a new life and job hunting is currently on their minds. We're out in the yard and drinking pints of Stella in the blazing sun. A plan is hatched to take my car offshore to Kangaroo island where the three of us can survey the island, sleep in a tent and improvise with barbeques. The logistics become a worry when I later find out the cost of taking the car on the ferry, and the plan is abandoned. It's way over budget. Next ; Adelaide misunderstood
