AFF Gathers: In RADelaide!! [28-30 November 2008]

[Flashback]

I have spoken with the tour operator, and he has informed me that:

(b) we can accommodate 20 persons, (21 at an absolute pinch) in our “Coaster” Coach, and (c) for you to hire the Coach and Driver/Tour Guide for the day, the charge would be Six Hundred and Five Dollars including GST (10%).

So however many people, divided into $605. Not a bad price if you ask me.

v8Statesman, good news - the $199 sale each way is back!

Yes I saw that last night. Happy Times!

 

[Flashback]

If you're able to get the same flights as me, looks like I may be able to *cough* "buy you that beer" after all ;-)

e.g. the biggest rocking horse in the world

That's it! I'm sold!

Reminds me of my Contiki in NZ last year, we visited the largest woolen jumper in the world..... how does the saying go, small things (or not so small) for small minds?

Alright boys! Throw him in the mud! :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:



I wonder if there are any good city things to do in Adelaide for the Sunday for those not attending the cricket. I guess we could public transport it to somewhere nice then do late lunch or something. Like real late lunch. (No one hardly went to the Sunday stuff either 'cos (a) had to get home, (b) late night and hungover, or (c) late night full stop (some of us did other things besides get hungover :mrgreen....either way Sunday brunch didn't seem to snag many people.)

Hire a car and drive down to McLaren Vale for Vino Tasting/Lunch; it's only a ¾ hour drive back to the airport; drop car off at airport; hit QP; float home ...

And it's a beautiful drive at that. Very windy through the hills, and very tight/fast but worth every minute of it

Hmmm...gotta stay sober or no driving! I'm sure a taxi fare for that might break the back (unless you fill up the taxi).
