Adelaide - Glenelg
Rain is forecast for the rest of the week. We drove to Glenelg but would have taken the tram if Bluey could have come with us. Imagine how many trips in gas guzzling cars could be avoided each year if cats and dogs were to be allowed on public transport.
We wandered along the foreshore which is busy with building works. We had coffee at Cibo and Blue kept licking the air trying to get the taste of Anita's coffee.
A few historic buildings remain in Glenelg. European settlement commenced in 1836 on what is now mainland South Australia. Unattractive high-rise buildings overlook St Vincent Gulf, but Sussex St has retained many historic houses and flats.
Anita found a shop where they could redo her fancy nails. I walked Blue around for over an hour, managing a third consecutive day of more than 8,000 steps. Blue has four legs and takes about four steps to each of my one, so he is way ahead of me.
There are lots of chain stores and eateries along Jetty Rd, but also some more interesting shops and restaurants. The top rating Cardone's is located in a shop on Jetty Rd. The main door to the restaurant is set back from the street leaving an area undercover where we could have Blue with us. We had lunch and shared this interesting tiramasu. The little golden balls were crunchy like the inside of maltesers.
Back at the showgrounds I walked to the RM Williams warehouse sale in the Jubilee Pavillion. I wandered through thousands of boots and some clothing, but did not buy anything. The rain has started so we are staying inside the Bushtracker for the evening.
