Wayne and Tracy's Travels

We have finally made it to the big smoke - Adelaide!!!  What a pretty town.  Lots of old buildings next to new skyscrapers and very easy to get around town.  We stayed on the beach and caught the train into the city and several people stopped and asked us if we needed help finding our way.  Either they are very nice people in Adelaide or we just look like QLD's.  I am going with helpful people.  We also did a drive down to Glenelg and looked at the very expensive houses!!!

After a few days in Adelaide we are now heading to do the Yorke Peninsula.  We spent a few nights at a fantastic free camp at Port Parham, and we are now making our way around the Peninsula stopping at all the pretty seaside villages on the way.  The coast line is very different - the tide change is low, however, it is very flat and goes out a very long way.  When the tide comes in it is at walking pace and pretty amazing to see.  It is a very long walk to the water at low tide so the locals have come up with some pretty impressive machines to get their boats out to the water.  Hopefully the fishing will start to be more productive as the weather is warming up nicely.
