Hope you enjoyed that green beer.
Today we drove into Daylesford to deliver Peter and Andreas to the hardware shop, while we Susan, Simon and Azusa browsed the market. An average country market the highlight being the railway station and the tourist train ride to Musk. We shouted Azusa a ride which she was delighted about happily snapping pictures of the countryside. It is only a 5km ride taking about 35 minutes return, pleasant again to experience the clackity clack and swaying of the carriage on the tracks. Yes there is something about rail travel, I was picturing an European rail holiday, or maybe we could catch the Ghan? From last reckoning I recon the European holiday would be cheaper (more research for me).

Three people fit quite comfortably in the back of the pajero but not when it is packed in travel mode, so the day actually started with Simon clearing the back seat and me peeling and chopping more apples and leaving them on the hob of the wood fire to gently stew while we were away.

The boys were back and were still sitting at the lunch table when we arrived back about 2pm, it was Azusa's day off so she went for a nap. I continued with apples as well as starting the lasagne for dinner, which was a bit of a lengthy process as I had decided to roast all the veggies first. It turned out well and was devoured by all. I knocked up some baked apples for desert, they were OK, but I will experiment with Simon's mums recipe when I get home as it sounds heavenly.
The day was finished off with UNO and laughter. It is a good life!
Tomorrow we pack so I made sure I got some happy snaps of Peters garden today, he has done very well on his little slice of paradise and has so many more plans, it will be good to return and see the progress and lend a more productive hand in the future.
All off arriving at Musk |
