June Long Weekend 2021

 Today we spent a couple of hours to ourselves and went to see the Lilydale Falls, the disused railway tunnel at Tunnel, and we were on the look out for Dr. Who.

We have had some rainy weather recently so the path to the waterfall was wet and slippery.

Well worth the walk to the Lilydale falls.

This is the upper level of the waterfall.

Some of the pathway was boardwalk through the manferns.

Then we drove to Tunnel to see the Tunnel.  We walked along the disused railway line.

The date on the railway tunnel is 1888.

A view back to the tunnel with the fallen trees.

Lunch at Rupert & Hound with Smeds

We had a totally wonderful catch up with friends from Victoria on Sunday 28th February.  We met up at Rupert & Hound restaurant at the Sea Port for lunch and then a walk around the area and to the Silo Hotel for a little drink.  Rupert & Hound is now my new favourite restaurant and I will need to go back there soon.

Thanks guys for a great day.
