September seems so long ago now, but it started
in Melbourne and how glorious that was. I was there for the Bowie exhibit, The
Lion King, and The Hermitage exhibition, but I did so much more. You can read all about it here.
On my return, I still had 2 weeks of leave, I
spent the first week pottering around at home, got my bathroom painted and a
few outstanding jobs completed.
I headed into Wheeler Place for the Refugees are
Welcome Rally.
Because I was away for Father's Day, I took Dad,
and my Mum and Sister out for lunch at Napoli Centrale, always an enjoyable
Italian feast.
I caught up with B at Le Passe Temps for some
afternoon tea, then wandered around the city on dusk.
I headed up to visit family on their
farm.
My final week was a mix of out and about, and
quiet days at home pottering.
A and I lunched at The Essential Ingredient
before taking to the hilly part of the East End of Newcastle, exploring,
admiring the stunning houses there, and enjoying the views before crashing at
King Edward Park under the shade of some trees.
I caught up with M for brunch at Table 1
Espresso, visited J in her new digs, and head to the Playhouse with A to see No
one cares about your cat.
C and I had a boozy long lunch at the new
Sephardim.
And before i knew it, I had to go back to
work.
Despite a busy week back at work, I squeezed in a
lunch with T at Caves Beach Hotel on a wet and wild Friday.
The month ended with my niece's 8th birthday. We
had a lovely celebration at their farm, and then the kids came back for some
time with me. We watched much Batman, had lunch at The Hood, and watched a large
ship go out to sea from Nobbys.
And some photos I took:
