Yesterday I went for a little cycle - my second visit to the ocean since I arrived. Adelaide has a 15 km cycle and pedestrian track along the Torrens River; it starts in the northern suburbs, runs through the city centre and ends up right on the beach. It's a wicked ride and the weather was warm and sunny so I took my time.
Once I got to the ocean and on to Henley Beach, I strolled out on the pier - ice cream in hand, yummy wildberry yoghurt flavour if you wanna know - and found this rather persistent pelican perched on the promenade. He kept striding up and down the pier and you got the feeling he was a sergeant major overseeing the two angler grunts as they pulled up HIS fish. And if he didn't get the fish... well, you just didn't want to go there, believe me!
