the weekend

On the weekend we hopped in the car, forgot the chores and drove away to have a mini-holiday. One thing that is fun about moving to a new state is there are lots of unexplored places to visit. (actually there are lots of fun and new places to visit in our old state but being in a new place helps you get of your behind and go explore!) We drove down to Torquay and walked on the beach, ate fish and chips in the car looking at the fantastic view (the flies kept us in the car). It was a little gloomy but this meant that the beach - and car spaces- weren't too overcrowded.


We also stopped in at Geelong Botanical Gardens on the way home. I love botanical gardens, I find them so inspiring and relaxing. Even makes me want to try my hand at gardening.


Oh yeah, we have also found a place that we will move into next week. It isn't perfect and is very small (an apartment) but we are a five minute walk from the beach, yay. So any gardening that happens will be in pot plants on the balcony!
