Views from the Long Weekend

11 March 2008 – 10:19 pm

It was a long weekend here - celebrating Adelaide Cup Day. I didn’t place any bets, watch any races, or wear any fun hats. I did, however, manage to go to the city twice.

First, to see the Northern Lights display (a lights show in North Terrace, in conjunction with the ongoing South Australian Arts Festival). Here’s a mosaic of my favourite shots from the (very hot!) evening -
