The trip research begins in earnest.

According to Virgin Blue's web site, the Adelaide Fringe is the second biggest fringe festival in the world. I'm guess Edinburgh gets the gold. Scary. But it also has good things to say about Adelaide Zoo, so I'll be going there. Public Transport in Adelaide seems pretty good, comparable to Melbourne in terms of price at least; they seem to be keen for people to use it, too. They even have trams there. (I think my internal benchmark for civilisation in a city involves trams in some form or another. Yeah, I know. I know.)

The owner of our house is thinking of selling; we've been asked our intentions past the lease. Let's hope he either decides not to sell, or sells to someone who wants to keep renting it, though the chances of the rent not going up by a lot if that happens are probably slim. I was hoping not to move again inside a year, and I really like this place, not to mention living with Darren and Emma...I'll keep my fingers crossed.
