Nice family weekend ...

We travelled to Adelaide on Friday to see our girls and have a busy weekend.  First up, off to the football at the new Adelaide Oval complex.

We stuffed up a bit as we (Gus) left it too late to get ticketed seats.  General admission to a game where there are 55,000+ people is not fun. We found seats right up the back of the stand, nosebleed seats!  Carlton lost to Port Adelaide in a massacre! We left at 3/4 time and walked to a nearby pub to drown our sorrows.

Adelaide, city of churches!

Saturday lunch - nachos a la Joolz...

Then it was off to watch Kirby (GK) play netball out at Santos Stadium...  I did the mumsy thing and scored for her team.

Then it was home at 5pm to get ready to go to Grease, the musical.  It was a fantastic show and we all enjoyed it.  A good laugh and the singing and music was spot on.  All characters played their parts well. I loved Todd McKenny as Teen Angel and John Paul Young was a great Johnny Casino, even incorporating Love is in the Air into the lineup. Bert Newton was a cute Vince Fontain and Rob Mills and Gretel Scarlet made a great Danny and Sandy.

Roast chicken for lunch today - I cheated slightly and bought roast chook and just did the roast veggies in the oven.

Its been a lazy day today - just lounging around.   I did make these Weekender biscuits http://simplyjoolz.blogspot.com.au/2009/04/weekender-biscuits-and-pumpkin-lasagne.html  though.  Tonight we are going into the city to have dinner and catch up with friends.

I will need to go home for a rest, I think!
Cheers - Joolz xx

  1. That game was a massacre and it would have been loud too! Would have been a great game to be at for Port fans. We were in Bay122 when we went, they are good seats. Your girls must love it when you come to town to cook :)
