shopping with street art

summer shoppingThe very convenient thing about doing that big long post about my Saturday shopping routine last week is that I can pretty much just say "refer to previous post"...

And today was pretty damn routine... other than the fact that Ma was running late which meant we got to the supermarket later and they were doing the stupid stock count thing where half the aisles are full of teenage boys who manage to make black pants and a blue button up shirt look untidy...

So, you know, other than that... completely average...

Anyway, I unpacked everything while we half watched the beginning of Where The Boys Are (cheesy, but the 50's was a very stylish decade, even if this technically came out in 1960).

Our main problems today were that a) it was a hot day and b) we didn't really know where we wanted to go... and Problem A contributed to Problem B, and vice versa... added to the fact that we went to Marion last week and we didn't really need anything from anywhere.

So, in the end we just went into the city to wander around...

trooperdoor... get it... trooper... door... troubadour... oh shut up...And since I knew there were some Mr Sloppys around town and other random street art in the Rundle Street area, I took along my camera... which turned out to be a Very Good Idea (as proven by the Stormtrooper helmet on one of the "alarmed" side doors of the library).

We wandered down the Mall, stopped off in a couple of places (Tree of Life, Smiggle, Diva) and bought random stuff... then wandered down Rundle Street, took a bunch of photos of street art, stopped off at Cocolat for a drink (mmmm Ferrero Rocher thickshake), came back up the other side of Rundle Street, photographed even more street art, then wandered back up the Mall.

Which doesn't sound like much, but it took a couple of hours all up.

Once we were done with that we headed back to the car and called it a day.

So not terribly exciting, although I always enjoy looking for/finding street art...
