🦘An Interesting Week For Adelaide

Events Nov 18-21, Pandas leaving, Hornets flying and more!

Good Morning Community!

Do you guys do much fishing? I’m trying out some fishing spots at Victor Harbor soon, wish me luck 🤞

Last week Adelaide was absolutely packed with events! Pretty sure everyone was spoiled for choice. This week's a bit quieter than usual (probably a good thing for our wallets), but don't worry - the weekend is always busy. Keep an eye out for Thursday's edition for all the events!

Did You Know🤔

We've got bragging rights for the longest straight stretch of railway track in the world! No curves, no bends, just 478km of dead-straight track cutting through the Nullarbor Plain. Built between 1907 and 1912, this absolute beast was a nightmare to construct - imagine working in scorching heat with no shade and barely any water, hauling in massive amounts of steel from NSW (they even had to build a special jetty in Port Augusta just to unload the stuff!). These days, the Indian Pacific train cruises this record-breaking stretch at 115km/h, giving passengers plenty of time to wrap their heads around the fact they're riding on the longest straight railway line on the entire planet.

Super Hornet🛩️

An F/A-18F Super Hornet made an appearance at the Adelaide 500 last weekend!

Quck Fact these bad boys can hit speeds over Mach 1.8 (that's about 2,200 km/h!) and can carry pretty much any weapon in the US Navy's arsenal.

Bye Pandas!🐼

Say goodbye to Wang Wang and Fu Ni as they boarded their plane back to China last Friday, I’m sure we will all miss seeing them in the Adelaide Zoo.
