Culinary delights

Ellie loves cheese. REALLY loves cheese. So holidays with El should involve cheese factories, and the Hunter Valley obliged. We visited all the cheese factories and shops in the region, had tastings, made purchases and then had three delightful cheese platter lunches - two under trees in the valley and one in the van on our way to Sydney.






Some of El's creations



We combined a trip to one cheese factory with a visit to friends at Caves Beach.


One of the guys had been diving and offered us a lobster!



We promptly turned it into risotto.

A gourmet few days wouldn't be complete without dessert...

South West Rocks

Part 2 of our trip with Ellie was 'the beach holiday'... so of course there were handstands on the beach! 

This little guy made a temporary home above the annex, but was relocated to the garden once Ellie noticed him.

We spent an afternoon walking around Trial Bay...




and even saw some whales.



We finished off our few days with some snorkelling and some fun in the surf.

Girraween

The year of the school holiday travels continues, and this time we're heading south with Ellie. First stop was Girraween National Park, with hikes up Pyramid Rock, Castle Rock and to the Sphinx.
