Australia Day Weekend in Adelaide

by Crikies - last update: May 14, 2004

Flying the flag

The Australian flag.
Our trip to Adelaide was on the Australia Day long weekend this January. Australia Day is January 26.

The photo shows the Australian flag flying from the Adelaide Post Office, opposite our vantage point for the parade, on King William Street.
Tour Downunder finishes

Tour Downunder

I hope I got that right. There was a major international bike race in the week leading up to Australia Day, finishing on the Sunday. This is the final stage in progress.

City of Churches

Adelaide is known as the City of Churches in Australia. Sadly (for me) many of them are no longer in use as places of worship. This one, Holy Trinity, as I recall, in North Terrace is still part of a vibrant Anglican Parish.

Pros:"Like a big country town: quiet, relaxed and a bit old fashioned."
Cons:"Too far from home! Air timetables not conducive to a quick visit."
In A Nutshell:"Adelaide - it's OK!"
