In March and April John and I had a fabulous holiday in
Singapore and
travelling around Australia. After a fun weekend in Renmark we went to Adelaide, where we stayed in Victoria Square, saw Yvonne in Glenelg and met Mike and Kate.

past the arts festival centre.
another of the ubiquitous black swans
on the opposite bank is the Adelaide Oval,
where local hero Donald Bradman played some of his finest innings.
The central station is made of sandstone, which is typical of many of Adelaide's buildings.
is in the centre of city and contains
several administrative buildings
a fountain
and it's also the place to catch the tram to Glenelg.
Glenelg is a pretty seaside town with a popular beach.
At the tram stop we met Yvonne and Donna
We had a stroll around the marina
and along the jetty.
Later at Yvonne and David's look who was cooking the barbie?
The following day we met some of my other cousins.
Mike and Debbie took us out for the day. As you can see once again it was bright and sunny.
Up in the hills at Mount Lofty was a very pleasant place for lunch.
Great views over the sea to Kangaroo Island,
On our way back we stopped off for a short walk around this pretty waterfall.
Then it was back to Mike and Debbie's for tea and to meet Kate and the rest of the family.
Great to meet you all and thanks again for taking us out and showing us a good time!
From Adelaide we then spent a week in Sydney.
