It wasn’t raining when we drove to Hallam, but was when we left and it rained for the rest of the morning. We had breakfast with Anita’s sister at Cafe Transylvania. I was sceptical about Anita’s choice of cafe that serves Hungararian and Romanian food, but it was terrific. The coffee was great, cake selection amazing and breakfasts good.
We drove back to Lilydale through the Dandenong Ranges National Park. I missed a turn and we ended up on a narrow winding road. At one sharp hairpin bend we had to go into 4WD get through the mud.
After checking on Tilly we headed to the Crown Hotel for lunch. I had the seniors’ roast beef and took leftovers home for Bluey. Anita had prawn rissoto and saved a couple of prawns for Tilly.
In the afternoon I went to Yarra Glen to visit my aunt and uncle. I took Bluey with me and he happily gave cuddles in return for treats and morsels of cheesecake. It was still raining back at our caravan park so we didn’t start any packing up jobs.
