Adelaide | Part 2

we woke up and spend most of the morning on the farm.
the boys enjoyed the never ending grass that they could run around,
they loved all the spiders hanging in the trees 
and chasing the cat around.
christmas leftovers filled our bellies and then we hit the road to adelaide city.
we checked into out hotel in the late afternoon,
perfect timing for dinner.
after we ate we did some adelaide city exploring,
my dad and mum lived here before they moved to sydney so they were our tour guides.
we were walking up rundle mall and this massive storm come out of nowhere.
it was torrential rain.
the closest thing we could find to get out of it was hungry jacks,
we bolted to the lights - the green man wasn't our friend because he stayed red forever,
by the time we got to hungry jacks we were all soaked from head to toe.
this made for one great memory.
the boys got slushies to hold them off as we examined the storm.
after a couple of minutes we realised it wasn't going anywhere.
we decided to hop on a tram back to our hotel.
this is when we called it in for the night.
the next day was perfect.
you would never have been able to believe the crazy rain we got caught in.
our tour guides pretty much showed us all the sights adelaide has to offer.
the city is small but i actually loved that about it.
we went on the popeye on the torrens river,
central markets where my dad got his fizzy drink he gets, 
from the same shop each time he comes here.
the boys really like that one.
they took us in the adelaide train station.
the thing i loved most about adelaide city is all the trams.
they can take you literally wherever you wanted to go.
we hoped on one and went from the city to glenelg and it was not far at all.
we walked the glenelg wharf/pier/whateveryouwanttocallit
- i can't remember what it's called,
we reenacted a photo we took of jevan and the boys back in 2012 at the same spot,
the boys played at the park and had ice-creams.
it was really such a perfect day exploring with my parents.
a memory i will treasure.
we headed back to the city to check out and this is where we leaved my parents
and head to the paton's house to continue of adventure through adelaide.
