KI Day 3

Wednesday, 22 December 2021

This morning I started the day with a run up the nearby Wallaby Track - which is sadly falling into disrepair since its creator and maintainer died last year.  It's still a nice run though.

Unfortunately Zali has picked up Jett's cold, so she was feeling under the weather and spent the day in bed. Jon, Jett and I had a leisurely morning at home then we left the house to do some touring and stay out from under the cleaner and occupational therapist who were coming to visit Shirley.  We went to an art gallery at Baudin Beach (which had some lovely stuff), then after a quick look at Baudin Beach we drove around to another beach area called Island Beach. It's riddled with fancy holiday houses which we sticky beaked at as we drove by. They have a nice enough long beach but I don't think anywhere measures up to Penneshaw for swimming and safe beach activities.

 

After our slow-driving stickybeaking we drove right out to the end of a little point which faced the township of American River. This was a nice discovery.

 

 

We still had plenty of time so we climbed Prospect Hill, and took a look at Pennington Bay.

 

 

By that time we had thoroughly deserved lunch, so we drove back to Penneshaw and went to a delightful cafe called Millie Maes. It's been nice that the weather has been perfect (not too hot or cold) for outdoor cafe dining. Particularly as this means we don't have to wear masks as we do indoors everywhere. After that we returned home to catch the last 5 minutes of the cleaner who was due to arrive hours earlier.

After checking on Zali (she was fine), I took a quick jaunt around town and along the beach.

 

By the time I got home it was our scheduled departure time for the afternoon's sight seeing. First was Cape Willoughby lighthouse:

  

Then Antichamber Bay:

 

 

Then it was home for a late dinner and some blogging.
