Look where I had my lunch today


Isn't it just the best view to set up a little picnic and ironically, there was this perfectly placed rock that we could use as a table!

For those living on the Central Coast, it's Warrah Lookout in Brisbane Water National Park. It's between Patonga and Pearl Beaches. We haven't heard of it before and actually planned a bushwalk in Maitland Bay but that was closed today for weed spraying. A bush ranger told us about this one and it is by far the best little bushwalk to do around the Peninsula. The track to the lookout was downhill on beautiful sandstone steps, winding through flowering shrubs and rock platforms.

I knew I was going to be around beautiful scenery today so I knitted madly yesterday to finish my Ilean cowl. I think it makes my knitted objects look so much better when I take the time to take photos of them against a gorgeous backdrop. It also helps that I look much happier surrounded by nature.

Is that a wild orchid flower? Must be cold up there. Nice view. Caught any sunset?

Hey Mike! I think it's a wild orchid flower but I'm not 100% sure. It's too cold to have caught any sunset recently. Maybe I'll catch one just for you eh ;)
