Hi lovelies,
We have had the most special of days.
Our day started with a stop at the breakwater to see if there were any seals around. There was this beauty.
We were blessed to see one have a swim around in the current. He was so lovely to watch. Happy to just drift with the water up and down the side of the rock wall.
It was then off on our planned journey.
First stop, Hankerchief Bay. This had been recommended by a local. The sheltered area was very pretty.
The beach area looks much like most beaches in this area with rock structures enclosing each end of the bay. The surf was a little rougher this morning so we did not venture too far.
From there we headed to Central Tilba. I did suggest a scenic route to Rob, who agreed so off we went. Dirt road 😅. We only got a couple of km down the road when we reached a sign that said the road was closed to all but residential traffic. Oops. So back to the highway and off to Tilba.
Central Tilba would have to be one of the most wonderful town.
The street is lined with little boutique shops.
We parked right outside the Heritage Tea Rose.
I think I could live in this amazing store.
It is full of tea pots, tea cups and 200 different styles of tea.
We wandered around for a bit and then said we would be back to have morning tea there after our walk.
Unfortunately the post office store and the Cheese Factory were both closed for stocktake.
Rob had a wonderful time in the Lolly Shop.
I had a blast in the Passionfish Candle and Gift Store and in the Bath Patisserie.
It was then back to the Tea Rose for our morning tea. The tables were beautifully set and they even had a blanket on the chair for those who were feeling the chill.
I will admit that I did wrap mine around my shoulders as the breeze in the door was a little nippy. Adele who was out hostess for the day was such a wonder.
We were a little curious about the spelling on this Phone box, but forgot to ask. Oh well.
From Central Tilba we headed off to Cobargo. Another small village on the highway. This town too had a lovely selection of shops either side of the street.
You know you are in a small town when the garbage man parks his truck in the middle of the street and has a chat with a friend outside the post office.
A couple of the shops are closed while people chase the sun,
including this cafe that was a converted train carriage.
One of the stores held a wonderful metal wine bottle holders. They were so cool.
It was then back in the car and back to Narooma. We stopped at the tackle shop so Robbie could grab some more lures, and then had another stop to see the seals.
Robbie also climbed up into Australia for this shot. I was worried he would fall, but all good.
Back to the van to get ready for some fishing. My muscle man husband was locking up and broke the handle of the door of the van. So instead of an afternoon of fishing we had another road trip, this time to Moruya to grab a new handle.
On the way back we again stopped to see the seals. I really love going there each time we go past. We always see something different. We caught this one diving off his perch
and then showing off as he splashed around.
Robbie is putting the video together for this. Click here to view.
A full day today and we had wonderful weather, a lovely drive and some special memories formed.
All for today lovelies.
Stay safe and keep enjoying life.
Love us.
