Happy Birthday To Me!

Yesterday was my birthday. Chyken left me early in the morning to head off on school camp to the snow all week.

My sister and I went to Daylesford.  We started out at the Convent Gallery where we had an early lunch.


They have a wine called 'Good Catholic Girl'.  I would have tried it, just for the irony aspect, but I don't drink wine.


We did some browsing in the main street...


This one is for Chyken...


We went to The Hepburn Bathouse and Spa but I didn't take any photos.  It was divine.  We didn't want to leave.  But then we got hungry.

Cheesecake and Hot Chocolate at the Daylesford Boathouse Cafe.


And Devonshire Tea.



A visit to the book shop...


So many books!!!





And then it was time to go back to reality.  With a promise to return again soon!

    Happy Birthday for yesterday! It look like you had a lovely day.

    I love alpacas so much and used to dream about having a farm of them one day. Now I just go and visit them every now and then!

    Daylesford is lovely. I'm only sorry I didn't have a chance to explore more when I last visited. I do like The Convent but not the taste of the local water.
