If you are in a rush you can walk around a lot of the major sights in Adelaide city in about 3-4 hours. When I landed there it was really quiet for a major town and smaller than I expected. It has some nice cafes and restaurants and some really lovely parks and walkways. Traditional stone architecture and wooden balconies on buildings take you back to the early 1900's. There is a street with what seemed like a disproportionate number of karaoke bars, so I guess karaoke is big in Adelaide! If I manage to get back this way, hopefully it will be summer and I can enjoy the beaches and a large amount of vineyard tours. :-))Adelaide is also where I first ate kangaroo. We dined at a place that proclaimed itself as being voted the "Worst Vegetarian Restaurant in Adelaide". There were two Irish guys at the next table whose faces were a picture of horror when my meal was announced as it arrived. Kangaroo meat tastes like fillet beef, is particularly good with a sweet chilli relish and, apparently, has very little fat to it as it is all muscle. So a lot more healthier than your average cow steak. One minute I'm feeding them and the next they're feeding me! What?! Oh come on, I had to try it!
