I'm going to Adelaide in 9 days! There's some sort of out of home care advocacy conference thing happening there over 3 days and I was offered some last minute tickets. I'm mostly there to just watch, but I do need to be the dude who introduces people, although they offer that to all of us that are going, so I'm only introducing a couple of people over the span of a few minutes on one day. Not sure if I should ad lib it or not, but I have names to remember.

I also get free time after the conference finishes, so you bet I'm going on as many Adelaide trains as I can fit in. Last time I was in Adelaide it was rather, err, unsanctioned (I ran away) so I had bigger problems to deal with

I'll have to find my metro card thingy (their version of a Myki). I never thought I'd be going back so I'm pretty sure I actually stuck it in a memory book type thing. Trouble is I don't know where I put that

Bite the bullet, and get a new one. Not worth the stress of hunting down the old one. My last visit to Adelaide was a long time ago, but I was impressed with the bus system.

I'm excited to try the o-bahn
