A weekend in Adelaide

I will be there is 2 weeks with my 13 year old daughter for a girly weekend. Staying in the city near the gallery and we will be walking every where. I haven't been for about 8 years.

 

So need some ideas.

 

Best place for breakfast?

Cool places for dinner?

Trendy shops?

in 8 years nothing much has changed 🙂 

sorry cant help much I hate the city and only go if i absolutely have to. Being in the city you are surrounded by shops and the east end is full of cafes and restaurants. Catch a tram to the bay maybe? Go to the beach house there and there a heap of places to eat there too

Bite my lip. ouch !!! Your ID may give you a clue ??? LOL 🙂  I would take a Bottle of  Gin & just go for it.  Just joking, have a great "girly  time" with your daughter. Someone who lives there may shed some great ideas.

There's a great market in the middle of Adelaide.  Catch the free tram down to the beach - there's some nice shops and cafes there.  Go and see the pandas.  I find Adelaide like a big country town and always enjoy staying there.

Tram isn't free to the beach. It is free between South terrace and the entertainment centre. I was in Adelaide, well an outer suburb. For Christmas. It is not like the old days. Businesses close and change very quickly now, so things do actually change just not so noticeable to those that aren't that observant

Yeah, it is exactly like a country town. If a country town had a population of over a million. Heaps if country towns do and if that country town had all the infrastructure of a city. City traffic. A major international airport. I bet most of the people that live in country towns are glad that they don't have the title of the most serial killings

Anyway martini, the tram to Glenelg (whether you pay or not) is a good trip to a nice beach with good shops and cafes.  It is free around the city.

 

Maybe I should have said the atmosphere is like a country town but I think ,ost would realise that.

 

Enjoy your weekend with your daughter - I'm sure you will enjoy Adelaide.

I was born in Adelaide and love it...

 

So many things to do, if you can get the bus to Norwood Parade, very cosmopolitan, lots of shops, plenty to see.

 

Beaches, art gallery, gardens, etc.

 

Enjoy your staySmiley Happy
