Day 167 (Monday 25/04) - Adelaide : ANZAC Day + Easter Monday

Again, today the sun is shining ...

I go for my jogging (same path as yesterday).

Later in the day, I go to the South Australia Museum.


The museum is free, and pretty good.
It's of course not as big as the Melbourne museum, but covers more or less the same subjects.

There's a nice room with minerals and different rocks and their evolution.

But most of all, the museum holds the biggest collection of Aboriginal objects in Australia (and in the world).
There are 2 levels full of objects like weapons, tools, clothes, ornaments, etc.
It's really nice.


















Another amazing room (which I personally found even better), holds an incredible collection of Pacific cultures objects.
We can find loads of things from Papua New Guinea, Fiji Islands, Salomon Islands, etc.
It's really impressive, and so beautiful ... (I prefer by far these objects than the more primitive Aboriginal ones)
















After the museum, I go again to the Botanic Gardens, and this time go into the Herb Garden, which of course smells really good ... (I love these herb gardens, I could stay there all day)











In the evening, I go out with some guys from the hostel (Thomas, Hugo from Amsterdam, Tom from Ontario and Nick from Sydney).

We first go to the Grace Emily's, the closest pub from the hostel, but don't stay for long as it's not that good.

We then go to find another place, but most are closed or empty (Australians don't party when on holidays ... Weird)

We end up by going to the casino, to see how it is (first one I go in Australia).
Thomas and I don't play anything, and leave pretty quickly (the others are not sure, and in the end Tom will play poker).

We go back at the hostel, and I go for a bit of Internet before going to sleep.
