No shouting, no spruiking. Just polite, knowledgeable people in long white coats, tending picture-perfect produce.
Paradise for lovers of goats and sheeps cheese….
And for lovers of all things sausage and offal!
Highly appropriate to depict suffering (well) half way up a very very long set of steps….

First day at school – mon amie Helen leads the way!
A new window on the world? Well, on Lyon at least! College Hotel offers the perfect setting for a couple of weeks of learning. All Lyon is spread out below. A vast plain of buildings punctuated by church spires and the occasional concrete office tower. Lots to explore!

Grey, rainy, cool but still magical in the Marais! A scarf around every neck, a monument at every turn, a fromagerie and a patisserie on every corner.

Such a contrast to the crispy dry foliage of late autumn in southern Australia! Up the hill from Pasir Panjang Village, Kent Ridge Park is lush and moist and teaming with green! In spite of the heat, it was tempting to stay and watch the jungle grow around me. Chocolate the labrador and I were glad of the view at the top of the hill – an excuse to catch our breath. Chocolate was more interested in the ants in the grass than the boats on the harbour!

There’s a couple of towns in Tassie that reckon topiary might put them on the map. Oatlands has a bit more substance than that (try shopping for grown-up garden accessories at Provincial Interiors or a customised pure wool Casaveen sweater) but couldn’t resist this symbol of local activity and purpose!

There are many reasons to stay at Avalon – fab architecture, great design, privacy, the sense of luxury at having all that space to yourself, the wallabies and kookaburras that come for breakfast, sleeping and waking with the sounds of the waves breaking …but most of all, The View.
