Holiday - Adelaide 23rd November to 4th December 2009.

Crikey! Okay, well we arrived in Adelaide airport at approx 10pm on the 23rd of November so it was about a 3 hour plane ride from Brisbane.
Mum and Graham picked us up and we went back to theirs where we had a chat and a cup of tea before turning in for the night at about 11.30pm (about 2.30am NZ time). We stayed in a caravan that mum and Graham had borrowed from a friend! Very comfortable and suited us very well! As you can see the caravan itself is in the car port which has a roof so it didn't get too hot in there.

The next day we went to Adelaide city and went through the 'markets' there. Very interesting, they had everything from fresh fruit & Veges to meat to clothes to practically anything you wanted all sorts of goodies, kinda wish we had one here really!
We got on a tram and went to a place called 'Glen Elg'. Beautiful beach and a place called the 'fun house' which had big hands as seats! Flynn loved them!
Nathan and I on the beach at Glen Elg.
We went to Barrossa Valley (of course!), wine and cheese tasting had to be done! I have put this photo in of Kev and I as he was wearing his 'sweet as' t-shirt that I love! Totally suitable!
Mum and Graham took us to Cleland park a wild life park where we feed the Kangaroos up close and had a photo with a Koala. (smelly creatures - but cute). It was a fantastic day.
Handorf was another place we went to, it is a wee German town that was very cute and personally I loved due to the vast amount of lolly and chocolate stores! Only problem was I brought some fudge and by the time we got home again it had melted.

Having a few drinkies one night on the deck at mums.

The above photo is my favourite from the whole trip! I think I will have to put Mum and Grahams wedding on a seperate blog - sometime this week when I get a chance! (enough for today already!!). All in all we had a fantastic time and loved getting away from the farm for a break together, as a family! Much needed.

Thank you to Mum and Graham who put us up and let us eat their food and use their vehicle and the list goes on! Thanks guys you rock!

That's all for now folks. xx
