My friend researched the dining history of that place and is a historian/consultant for the gastronomy side there. <BR/><BR/>I was gonna suggest the dolphin cruise too but you've been already. I know, how cheap is it!? So funny.<BR/><BR/>If you go up to the old Rocking Horse and stuff, have lunch in Woodside, at the Woodside Providore - good food.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660497.post-27270506862795777572008-08-21T13:50:00.000+09:302008-08-21T13:50:00.000+09:30Yep we just went to Port Adelaide last weekend and...Yep we just went to Port Adelaide last weekend and I saw that Dolphin Cruise...how cheap is that?!

My inlaws are arriving in September for a month as well, and like you, I've made a list of things to do and see. Tops on my list - and not on yours are Urimirra Wildlife Park near Victor Harbor and the Dolphin river Cruises up in Port Adelaide - at $3.50 pp the 2-hr cruise is the best deal in town! lolLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10668192168400882599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660497.post-52277755451775420952008-08-16T01:33:00.000+09:302008-08-16T01:33:00.000+09:30Lol...Susan did wear me out in Auckland, although ...Lol...Susan did wear me out in Auckland, although I did enjoy the sights and activities. I've looked over all that's posted here and putting them in some sort of ordered list. Saving grace is that I'll have some days on my own to wander about at my own pace. :-)<BR/>If ever you get to the states, Steve, you and Paula will have to get in touch. Or, perhaps we'll meet up in Australia?Muddiahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05912279679810685552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660497.post-39703520882706225352008-08-15T13:25:00.000+09:302008-08-15T13:25:00.000+09:30Well you may still yet, especially if you do move ...Well you may still yet, especially if you do move back to the States.

I was guilty of this and ran her poor family ragged taking them here there and everywhere. In the end they had to ask for a day off the relax and do laundry, write cards etc.<BR/><BR/>For the second visit I listed the places and what was there to see, told them how long the trip might be, both in travel and in length of stay and left them to select the ones they wanted to visit - a much smarter idea.<BR/><BR/>Shame we never actually met you mum<BR/><BR/>Stevesteveghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05613989768301181748noreply@blogger.com
