      A day for a wander, friends and food

      August 18, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

      A cloudy but fine day today. We started off slowly with some shopping and then a wander down at the jetty precinct.

      We met a friend of Cathrine’s for lunch at a fanstastic cafe. Thelma is lovely and the three of us had a lovely chat.

      Afterwards we went out to the Ambergate reserve for a wander through the bush. The wildflowers are just starting to come out. They aren’t large and showy like I’m used to but smaller and more delicate. We met some cows. I’m not sure whether they were more interested in us or Cathrine in them!

      Back to our accommodation for a rest and to watch the Matildas.

      Dinner tonight was at Yarri in Dunsborough. I’ve been there once before and loved it. Tonight didn’t disappoint. Each course was exquisitely plated and all the flavours and textures went together so well. It’s definitely worth a visit if you are down here.
