Travelog Australia 2015: Melbourne to Adelaide, Adelaide CBD

Date: June 27th, 2015

Our flight to Adelaide was at 10.15am. Hence, we took the 8am train from Flinders St. Station and later a bus from Broadmeadows to the airport. Being Saturday, not many people were around and I noticed a lot more of backpackers while waiting for the bus. By 9.30am, we have checked in and dropped our luggage at Qantas counter.

The flight was smooth and we arrived in Adelaide as scheduled around 11.10am. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw Fifi waiting for us right at the gate! Then only I know that domestic terminal in Oz allowed people to wait and escort up to the gate.
Right after we arrived, our next destination is the Camper Van rental. For this, I dont really have the detail as the rental was settled by Fifi. After watching the safety video and signing the agreement, off we go.
 Our 1st stop was a Park, the 1st stop for the Free tram CBD zone. I cant recall the park name but it was most likely close to Railways Oval since the tram line was from the suburb area towards to Airport. We left our camper van there and board the tram towards Adelaide Central Market.
 We bought rice, veggies,fruits and chicken there. My gosh, it was a lot and so we decided to return to our Van to leave the foods there before heading to Rundle Mall..
 Of course, we borong bottles of mineral water, chips, chocolate, Timtum, Timtum and more Timtum LOL!
 Had our iftar at the Swinging Bowl (a.k.a Mangkuk Hayun). The pricing here depends whether you're a student or not (they have student discount). Thumbs up! This was our 1st proper Melayu meal in days but it was tasty. The drinks were free flow, same with the bubur jagung. With mat-sallehs' portion, we dont really need to top them up.
After iftar, we returned to our Camper and bid Fifi farewell. It was close to 7pm and we officially start our Red Center Roadtrip with our 1st stop -->> the Laundrymart. Kind of stupid, i would say. Coz the Camper Park has laundry! Arghhh if only we knew, we could settle down to our cabin earlier while doing our laundry. We spend almost 2hrs here but while we're there, couple of policemen came and talked to a guy there. He looked homeless but we're not sure as he was doing his own thing, not bothering us. It ended up with the man leaving the laundry mart.

p/s: You can see our food stock for this trip. Timtum and Chips have got to be on top hahaha.

 Anyways, after everything was settled, we drove to our 1st camper park @Adelaide Shores Caravan Park, West Beach.
