TDU - Day 5

For my last day in Adelaide we had big plans to see a national wildlife centre but the high temperatures again put a stop to this so we just stayed indoors and watched the tennis.

Strangly by mid afternoon a weather change had arrived with the temperatures dropping to a respectable level so we headed into the CBD to see the city sites before my flight. Unfortunatly the tour circuit race had finished so Leigh took us on a tourist route of city highlights taking in the famous cricket oval (Bradman Stand), tennis area and Torrens river.

Later we stopped into "The Wellington" Hotel for a final dinner together before heading to the airport for my 10.25pm flight back home. http://www.wellingtonhotel.com.au

It’s not very often that you see a professioal cyclist in the airport or on the street for that matter but today as I waited with Leigh & Kylie, Julian Dean (Team Credit Agricole) walked passed. As it turned out he was heading home on the same flight, which I thought was rather interesting.
If you make a comparison to the world’s most well known cyclist - Lance Armstrong who fly’s in his own jet, but some one less popular like Julin Dean has to make do with commercial flights.

Unfortunatly the reality of this flight was that I was heading back to work but a nice thought was that I had enjoyied a fabulous time with Leigh & Kylie.

Thanks very much guys, until next time.
