There were parking attendants to help us wedge our cars into their spots. Took me a few tries largely because the Aussies have different parking lingo. For example, "keep that lock" apparently means keep the steering wheel exactly where it is. At least I didn't have to get out of the car and let them do it like some people did.
On the way back to Adelaide we stopped at a winery to grab lunch. Had a great steak and washed it down with the local Cab.
They even had caramelized strawberries for a complimentary dessert.
To top it all off we watched a fly give birth to around 20 larvae on the window sill next to our table. I can see how some might view this as a negative, so I've declined to mention the restaurant's name. I thought it was kinda interesting.
When we got to our Adelaide accommodations it turned out that they somehow lost our booking. Ming showed them the email confirmation so they pretty much had to figure out a way to honor it. They did so by sticking us in one of their apartment-like suites on the 13th floor, complete with a balcony, city-view and, importantly for us, a washer and dryer.
After watching the sun set and doing a little laundry and, we headed out on the town for some food. It turns out Adelaide has quite the sizable Chinatown.
We got some takeout and went back to our "apartment" to watch the wet moon hanging lazily in the sky. It occurs to me I should have gotten some of the horizon in this shot to prove I didn't turn the camera sideways.
