Saturday

It was a busy day right from the beginning today. Well, right after our Lavazza coffee, that is. Yes, the Tour de Victoria rode right past our back window.


I thought I'd sort through some more boxes with a view to purge more stuff, so stayed inside in the back hall near to the window.


Peter, on the other hand, chose to go outside and watch the race up close and personal.


Then we did some laundry, dropped a few boxes off at the donation store, went grocery shopping and came back to make a cup of tea. We then walked down to the harbour to find a bench in the sun to people watch and sip our tea. The bench we chose this time was on the lawn in front of the Empress Hotel. Rather fitting for our cup of tea, don't you think?

After dinner we got busy in the kitchen. First, Peter figured how to re-hang the 'floating shelves' in the kitchen. It is now so sturdy that I filled it with cookbooks!

Now that's sturdy ...

Next we hung my favourite pot rack - a wheel from my old touring bicycle (adapted by our friend Andy and modified by Rob). It sure pays to have creative friends who can weld with confidence. We are both very pleased with the result.

Our little apartment is getting to feel more like home all the time!
