We spent the nights of April 1st, 2nd, 3rd in Adelaide primariliy for the purpose of "business" (more vehicle work and completing US tax returns) rather than sight seeing. Never the less we took the opportunity to renew our aquaintence with Adelaide city/downtown and the area around the Torrens River. The Adelaide metro area has grown dramatically since our last visit over 20 years ago and is quite a sprawl. The city and Torrens area have undergone some major upgrades but has retained the charm of the city we knew.

We also took the chance to catchup with Lorri, a lady we met on our 2006 trip on the Trans-Siberian railway.

We stayed in a cabin at the BIG4 West Beach Tourist Park a large tourist and parks complex right on the beach in the suburb of Glenelg west of the city. A very nice place.
