What a wonderful weekend we have had -
Lunch in the cappuccino strip in Bunbury. There is a variety of restaurants, some of which are
housed in lovely old buildings. Trees which are lit up at night with
fairly lights, line the street. It really is a lovely place to go for
coffee or lunch. There is a
variety of restaurants - you can go from a
simple sandwich to Chinese to pizza to fish
and chips to a top class Italian restaurant.
Take away, dine in, tables along the
footpath, and the cakes are devine! and the
people watching - the place to be seen. The cappuccino strip certainly has a
lovely feel about it. It is a great place to
go and meet up with friends, or just go for a
stroll!
On Sunday we went to the 16th Annual Nannup Flower and garden festival -
They have had 4 days of garden and floral displays, quilt & craft displays, stalls, art exhibitions, choir singing, workshops and entertainment. As you can see in the collage below it is tulip time. I love the "beetle" car covered in grass and run by solar power! And I might have to dig out some old boots and plant flowers in them!
And a beautiful quote from Buddha on the display from the high school -
"The perfume of flowers travel only as far as the wind
but the fragrance of goodness travels throughout all worlds
The garlands woven from a heap of flowers
fashion your life as a garland of beautiful deeds"
On Sunday late afternoon-evening a friend and I went to "Concert and Cocktails" at the Koombana Bay yacht club.
This was a fund raising event for the Stirling Street Arts Centre, going towards renovations and additions to their facility.
It was a wonderful evening. Performing were the South West Opera Company (with songs from Carmen), South West Philharmonic Orchestra, Bunbury Musical Comedy Group (with songs from Fiddler on the Roof), Bunbury Catholic College Girls Choir (with songs from the Beetles and the 60s), Bunbury City Band and South West Jazz Enzemble, and a crowd favourite, the Soly Sombra Spanish Dancers.
In the mosaic below in second from bottom left, and on the far right of the top right photo, you can see my daughter in law in the bluish gypsy dress. Don't they all look so beautiful dressed in their gypsy costumes? I joined the dance group earlier this year, and my teacher says next year I will be dancing..... I don't now about that.......
Thank you for stopping by. I look forward to hearing from you. I am linking up with Mosaic Monday at Little Red House. Click on the link to see the work of other wonderful contributors. -
