General Technical Chat / Re: Questions about Adelaide Australia
« Last post by SmallCog on Today at 11:22:26 pm »I've been pondering things for you to do, we don't really have a science and technology museum here, despite being quite a technical city.
We have Codan making radios, Redarc doing DC power equipment, and many other global defense brands present doing all sorts of stuff that would be interesting if we could actually hear about it.
There is however a temporary museum display happening of radio equipment, much of it brands that were manufactured here in Adelaide.

This display moves around, I'm not sure when you're visiting but hopefully it will be available somewhere to view when you're here.
Definitely put aside a day to explore the various institutions along North Terrace in the city. Well worth having a look at our museum, art gallery, and state library, all of which are free to enter.

If you like good food and wine then you're in the place for that, Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale are all within an hour of the city center and have world class offerings.
