Did you get any e-mails?<br /><br />I haven't been there in a few years so my knowledge of the area is limited but <br />Whaley is from Adelaide, maybe he can help.<br /><br />Aldo

Re: Calling all Aussies

You need to keep bumping this until whaley sees it.<br /><br />I'm in Melbourne, about 600 mls from Adelaide. But I've been there a few times over the years so here goes - <br /><br />Adelaide is the capital of South Australia, it is probably the smallest capital city in Aus. It is known as the 'city of churches', because it has lots of churches (duh!). It's warm to hot most of the time, it's biggest tourist attraction are the wine producing districts (the biggest being the Barossa Valley). It has a reasonable night life with very good restaurants. It is situated on a large bay, extremely good fishing (probably the best snapper grounds in the country), also very good beaches. Unfortunetly, shark attacks in and around the area are too common (big white pointers). Whale watching. <br />I'm struggling to think of anything else.<br /><br />EDIT: I think it is the home for the aussie chapter of the hells angels or coffin cheaters or something like that.<br /><br />Whaley, were are you????????

Hey AK, I tried to send you an email a couple of days ago. It bounced back. Send me an email <br /><br /><br />I think that Dunnarunna has given you a good idea of what we have to offer.<br /><br />I Live about 150Kms north of Adelaide<br />Let me know when you are coming, I'll toss some steaks on the Barbi

AK If you are into fishing you will have to visit Kangaroo island. This is a beautifull spot and the fishing is excelent.<br />As Dunna said, The snapper fishing in this area is fantastic. The grounds are closed during November, however I can give you information about charters if required

About to send e-mail now. Don't know how much "time off" I will have. I have a feeling I will be quite busy, but should have some free time.<br /><br />AK Chappy
