Slowly Opening Again for Business

The sign the apocalypse might have passed South Australia, the pubs are reopening. Here we are at Udaberri. It is a Spanish inspired pub and tapas restaurant that just happens to serve Carol's favorite drink, the "36s (name of the blood orange liquor) Blood Orange". Today's version is good but she's keen to get back to bartender, Alex, who makes them the best.  He's finally been allowed to return from New York. We're now able to enjoy a drop without ordering food. There remain strict social distancing and capacity restrictions.
 
And then there is CJ's reward for good behavior. But why is the reward bad behavior? One of our longer walks is to cross town along the river, pass through the Adelaide Botanic Gardens, popping out on the east end of town in the prime shopping district; and just by coincidence that is the same neighbor hood of the Belgium Beer Bar. It's been over two and a half months since the sweet taste of Leffe Bruin has passed his lips. Now we're talking pubs are open.
 
And finally, our first dinner out in a restaurant even if a socially distanced restaurant. There are now time limits on the amount of time you can occupy a table. Great burgers, not so great beer and wine.
