One of our eminent committee members, Jenny Loveder, undertook the dangerous and arduous task of checking out Jetty Road, Glenelg, site of our Retreat next year. After hours of strenuous streetwalking (I kid you not) here is her report.
"I can offer (very satisfied) information on a little cafe called Zest in Sussex Street, Glenelg, where I had a really good coffee this morning, along with three different bruchetta – hummas, tomato & basil, and tapendade, all served by pleasant, smiling staff. I passed Bracegirdles and DIDN’T go further up Jetty Road to Haigh’s, tho I was tempted! Bookshops abound, coffee cafes thrive, and the place just buzzes." Jenny
Of course, had she enough energy to continue in other directions, she would have discovered a long inviting jetty, sandy white beaches, a fun park with a beautiful old Hurdy Gurdy, and esplanade of cosmopolitan restaurants and luxury apartments and shops and a boat marina.
And all this on top of the best quilting weekend you could ever hope to experience. How can you not come to Adelaide next April?

Having stayed down the road and around the corner from Jetty Rd early this year I can also say they have a few good shoe shops as I needed to buy a pair of "flat" sandals for the races at nearby Morphettville. They also have lots of good places to eat around near the marina!
