Dad out does himself again for breakfast with eggs, bacon and tomatoes on toast.
Today we went to the Salamanca Markets they are huge and reminiscent of the markets in The Rocks in Sydney. It is sunny but there are moments of very light rain and the wind is freezing!!! So cold that my head starts to get very cold and I have to buy a beanie and a scarf to keep warm. I found some lovely glass earrings and we bought tassie badges (metal) for our vests. We will now have to find Victorian and NSW ones. We found a blueberry stall and they have blueberry tea, fresh blueberries, blueberry jams we got talking to Carl (the grower) and his wife Nadia about their blueberries and comparing them to ours they grow completely different varieties to ours and his are so delicious. Nadia has a pot brewing so we try some and it is delicious too ingredients are blueberry leaves, dried blueberries, raspberry leaves, spearmint leaves and cinnamon (all things we grow except cinnamon). I hand the packet of 24 tea bags over to buy it and Carl refuses to take payment and says it is a present which is so lovely!! We bought some fresh vegetables for dinner.
We saw that crazy Moto Guzzi bike it has lots of little things attached to it including snow chains, steelwool and many little 'tools' that are obviously helpful LOL. And the Endeavour is docked in Hobart so we decide to walk over and have a look. It is a very small ship and I can't imagine sailing the open oceans in it!!!
We walk back to the car and visit the Wicked Cheese Factory which sells wonderful cheeses could have spent quite a bit of money there but it wouldn't keep :( we tried Brie, Camembert, Triple Brie and Chilli Camembert/smoked cheddar, cheddar/olive labna, sundried tomato labna yummy and Mum and Dad bought Triple Brie and Chilli Camembert for us all to share.
We drove into Richmond to check out the stone bridge and St John's Catholic Church.
