The next day we headed into the city again and now we have our bearings, we found the exact same car park or van park as the day before and headed for a bit of culture into the Adelaide Art Gallery where they were holding a Turner exhibition and the general gallery is great. We spent a couple of hours wandering through and as we left even ran into a wedding on the steps of the beautiful old building. A bit of a wander around town and then home again.
Walking the Linnear Parkand feeding the ducks before dinner was a lovely end to a lovely day.
And of to Nuriootpa and the Barossa on Easter Monday. There are 3 small towns - Anguston, Nuriootpa and Tanunda so close together they are almost the one town - full of old buildings and small cottages, wineries and craft and coffee and lovely trees just changing colour. The days were warm to hot with clear blue skies whilst the evenings and early mornings freezing and crispy.
We went to Anguston for a walk and into the dried fruit company - every dried fruit and nut known to man and we bought chocolate oranges and nougat. Yum Yum. Of to the local pub for a bottle of wine and we are selecting out of the fridge in a tiny little room when I turn around and look up - second floor packed with wines , many local and most South Australian - we could have been here for hours just looking at them all. Paula one for you and Pre.
The next day to Yalumba Harvest Festival - the grounds are like something from England and very
impressive - they open them to the public for the day and local food producers to put on a food fair - a bit like Bangalow Food Festival but the setting is spectacular, music, wine, beautiful people and buildings and food that is quite special - just up our alley.
