Adelaide

Cliffs Notes Version:
Only one day, two nights in Adelaide. We went to the city gardens, and had some wine and a burger (random, huh) at the National WIne Centre.

Day 1

Adelaide is right in the middle of Australia's largest wine producing region and is home of the National Wine Centre. We went there after we hit up the City Gardens, and did some wine tastings and grabbed some lunch. I ordered a cheeseburger. Now, normally I don't remember what I order, but I remember this cheeseburger cause it was really good and Colleen shot me puppy dog eyes the entire time because she was pissed she didn't order the burger. She had a bite and trumpeted that it was the best burger she had ever had. Colleen is not one to name things best ever unless she means it ... although she did have two best wine ever awards go out on the prior two days successively. We spent the rest of the day shopping (FABULOUS!!!) and drinking at a pub. I learned that in Australia pitchers are called jugs so I would always send up Colleen to order so I could comment on the size of her jugs when she returned. Just kidding about that, I'm not that cheesy, though pitchers really are named jugs, at least at this one bar in Adelaide, I can't speak for the rest of the country.

FYI ... 6 feet 5 inches equals 1.98 meters
