Friday...final destination Adelaide! And HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM SMITH!!

Luckily last night we managed to grab a few hours sleep, in contrast to the night before.  We both woke up when they turned the carriage lights on at 6am.  As the train slowly hit the City suburbs we meandered through picturesque streets and parks, arriving at our final destination of Adelaide Station at 8am.  We disembarked with bleary, tired eyes and caught the transfer bus to our hostel, the Adelaide City YHA.

On arrival we checked in and left our bags (as we couldn't access our room until 1pm) and headed to the kitchen for free pancakes and coffee - yum!  The hostel is lovely, very modern and bright, with huge common areas for relaxing.

After exploring the place we headed out into the City to get our bearings.  As Adelaide is not a huge City to wander that proved easy, and soon enough we had it figured out. 

As we had time to kill we registered at the local library and made use of their free internet, and then went to the local supermarket and purchased supplies for our 3 nights here.

As we both felt shattered we went back to the hostel, did our laundry and ate dinner before having an early night!
