Thinking Of Driving Up, Melbourne To Adelaide

[adis]

hey guys, ive been thinking about this for a while and have decided to drive up to adelaide in about 3 to 4 weeks time, havent decided on actual date yet. I was wondering if you guys can suggest first of all a place to stay, hotel thats not too expensive that is, also what i should check out while in adelaide and night spots. Any other suggestions and or ideas are welcome. Boys trip, no girls pm me email me, write here. Anyway your comfortable, thank you! Ps if you guys end up having some sort of a cruise, ill join that too if i can. Cheers, adis.

me thinks that we should have a nice lil cruise.....if your after nightlife then Melb is way better lol....but we have a few places you can check out HQ seems to be a very popular place to pick up lol.....Definitely go for a nice drive through the hills and try some good food at Harndorf.....

Oh and feel free to come to Cafe de Villis on south road near richmond road to say hello to a few peeps and get some good villis pie into ya

Funny coincidence that a few of us off here (myself, Sled, Reb Back and Scandyflick are flying over to Melb Sat 1 Aug to pick up my new car and drive it back to Adelaide Sun 2 Aug. Road trip? lol

if youre looking for a hotel that is decent priced and smack bang in the middle of the city, try the pacific in hindmarsh square.

as for nightlife, i myself like the smaller underground clubs & bars - i reccomend Sugar on Rundle St. and even Dragonfly in Victoria Sq. on a Saturday night. Theres heaps of other joints that are popular - Electric Circus, Garage, Dog & Duck, Vodka Bar, or even HQ like Batmaan Bin Suparman said above (lol). And while you're down here, you might as well check out the worst Casino in Australia...

3-4 weeks time??? You'll be here in time for the SAU:SA dyno day ... come watch.

The Riviera on North Terrace city is a nice cheap place with guest car parking at the back. Very close to the city night life.

Mars bar is definately one to check out, Krishy told me so.

Well thank you guys for all your ideas, keep 'em coming... ill be there few days so i will need ideas and things to do and visit. Any nice twisty roads or similar?

[Damo_R34]

gorge road, lobethal road, chain of ponds, google map them

[adis]

Yes i will Google and Tom Tom all of them

[TALBO]

Norton Summit Rd is one of my favourites too

Mars bar is definately one to check out, Krishy told me so.

you didnt complain when you came along Damo.....

Vote 1 for Damo to be the SAUSA drag queen.....lol i see Pete's eye light up

Mars bar is good if you going with some leso friends as they can pick the leso chicks from the straight ones....and there is plenty of that in there from what i hear....

So if your into your RNB tunes there is a few places....Sugar, Mansions (even tho the DJ sucks), Swish, Club 58 (it plays all sorts), Earth (changing their style of beats...more trance, electro, house stuff), HQ (plays everything and anything and plenty of hotties there), Garage, Cargo, Rocket Bar, Vodka Bar, Tool i mean woolshed, Red Square (its gone plain wierd there now), Dog n Duck, Palace (classy boobies), Crazy Horse Revue (average boobies), Land of promise (exactly what the title says), Casino for cheap drinks just dont let Dave (scandy) take your money, The Elephant, RNB at the CRIB if you like hanging with Wanksta's (all brothers from africa yo), Pier one at the bay, Dublin at the bay (chicks behind the bar are stunning), Grand at the bay

So thats a fair few places

+1 for cruise, just dont get your car impounded while you're here lol

Have been on an awesome cruise before which cruised through Gorge, Chain of Ponds and then the back way to Angaston, then head back towards the city through the twisty roads of the Barossa - yes, I'm biased lol.

It was an awesome cruise though, Scenic as and some good food too. (Bakehouse Cafe Williamstown FTW)

[SkyHi_33]

Definitely check out the hills we got here, everything else has pretty much been covered (yeh adelaide sucks) but check out Handorf on your way out for breakfast/lunch before making the trip back
