A stand of white aganpanthus past its best, on Gilles Street, Adelaide.

Last minute decision last night to head up to a lookout and shoot what looked like a promising sunset over Adelaide city. I left the house in such a rush I forgot to take any filters - so this is a bit blown out, shooting nearly directly into the sun, but the sunrays through Adelaide's city centre were a treat.

Reflection of the entrance to the Adelaide Central Plaza in the stainless steel sculpture (aptly named Malls Balls) of two balls, one balanced on top of the other.

 

It is situated in the middle of Rundle Mall -- the main city shopping mall, with wide paved street filled with trees, lamp posts, benches, buskers, and the occassional bike trailer selling food.

Apothecary 1878 in Adelaide S/Australia converted to a cool bar and eatery with food tasting menus with cool titles such as “controlled substances’ and ‘vitamins and minerals’. Looks like a place Edgar A P would have enjoyed.

Adelaida, AUSTRÀLIA 2023

 

Adelaide Gaol, located in Australia, was one of the first prisons built in the state of South Australia in 1841. It operated as a correctional facility for over 140 years, closing its doors in 1988. It is known for housing notorious criminals and being the site of multiple executions. Today, it serves as a historic site and museum, offering guided tours to explore its architecture, prisoner stories, and impact on the city's development. It is also famous for tales of paranormal activity, attracting both historians and ghost hunters alike.

Adelaide Arcade

 

The elegant Adelaide Arcade is a beautiful and intriguing example of South Australia’s living history. Opened in December 1885 to widespread acclaim, its distinctive domes, ornate details, and architectural grandeur had never before been seen in Adelaide.

 

It took 200 workers an unprecedented five months to complete Adelaide Arcade and the adjoining Gay’s Arcade. Considered extremely progressive at the time, new building materials and techniques were used, and it was one of the very first buildings in Adelaide to have electric lights. Featuring Carrara marble floors, glass-panelled ceilings, and extra-wide promenades, the Adelaide Arcade was a place of opulence.

 

The official opening reflected this grandeur, with street closures, crowds of onlookers, a visit from the Governor, and an orchestra playing ‘The Adelaide Arcade Polka’, especially composed for the occasion.

 

At the time of its opening, the Arcade housed 50 shops. Store owners would retail their wares from the ground floor, while their workrooms, accessed via an internal staircase, were located above on the first floor. The addition of a balcony level in 1968 doubled the number of stores in the Adelaide Arcade and provided the beautiful aesthetic we still enjoy inside the Arcade to this day.

 

In a life spanning three centuries, Adelaide Arcade has been home to many interesting tenants. One of the most exotic was the Turkish Baths, where you had your choice of warm baths for a shilling or Turkish baths for four shillings. Beneath the main floor was an underground chamber where patrons could enjoy refreshments. While the entrance was closed for many years, the tea rooms are now visible through a glass floor that has been built over the original ironwork staircase.

 

The uniqueness of the Adelaide Arcade doesn’t reside solely with the retailers. Did you know the Arcade has its own Coat of Arms, visible beneath the domes? Or that the fountain at the Rundle Mall entrance moved homes many times before finally coming to rest in its current location? The Balconette at the Grenfell Street end was designed as an orchestral gallery where bands played, and grand balls were held in Gay’s Arcade. The Arcade also saw the unfortunate and gruesome death of the resident caretaker in 1887… rumour has it his ghost still walks the promenade at night.

 

The Arcade has seen many changes through the years, from the addition of central trading booths in the thirties, the introduction of the balcony level in the sixties, and a major fire in the eighties. Over the years, however, the Arcade has been lovingly restored to its nineteenth-century glory and maintains its position as the luxurious heart of Adelaide’s central retail precinct.

Here is a shot that gives the boats some scale.

The Adelaide to Melbourne rail line makes a scenic and controversial route through the Adelaide Hills. This section through tall trees just east of Mt Lofty station is quite nice.

This boardwalk opens on to a swath of a bay where dolphins whales and their calves seek refuge from the ocean. we walked along the boardwalk, met a fisherman who stated and I quote "You just missed some blue nose porpoises about half hour ago" I picked up his rod and threw it into the ocean I was so annoyed. JoAnne went back to the car for a snooze and I sat moodily on the pier, my camera trained on Deep Blue waiting for a return of the great blue nose like Ahab. I did see several break surface and caught them but so far out it did not quench my appetite for fish eyes. I mean Ayes.
