Saturday February 17, 2018 - Adelaide and Surrounds

Saturday, February 17, 2018
We went ashore after breakfast. As we left the ship Alice remembered that we had considered an excursion to Hahndorff, a German suburb of Aelaide. We had not booked it. As we inquired at the information desk about the train ticket into the city, we noticed a Hahndorff brochure. The gentleman explained that a one day pass for the train was valid for all forms of public transport. When we arrived in the city someone at the transit office could tell us how and where to get the bus to Hahndorff.

45 minutes in the central station we found the transit office. A very kind lady told us the best bus to take would be the 864. We could catch it at a stop just 4 blocks away. It would run every half hour and take 50 minutes to get to Hahndorff. 30 minutes later we were on the bus.

The ride to Hahndorff took us through hill country. It was beautiful. The main drag in town was many blocks long. It was loaded with shops and restaurants. We enjoyed them all before returning to the city.

As we passed a hair salon in downtown, Alice decided to get her hair cut. It looks great. The stylist was great.


Now dinner is over and I am in the terminal trying to upload as many days of this blog as possible. A poor but free wifi link has finally let me get current. I am sorry there are no photos uploaded yet. They will come with a better connection. Soon, I hope.
