A wonderful weekend away at Little Forrest Cottages in Alpine with Lauren, Christian, Kim, Derek, Jassenka, Sanchie, David, Maria, Juni and Eugenie.
Highlights included...
- A spread of food for breakfast and dinner fit for a king including succulent salmon, kofta to die for, the best bean salad I've ever tasted and amazing tiramisu.
- A squelchy, damp stroll around the forested circumference of the property where we stayed. The leeches were out in force but we were onto them before they could take hold.
- Lots of laughs and some wonderful deep philosophical discussions.
- Playing a hilarious game called Dirty Minds. Lauren and I were in our element :)
- Sampling craft beers at the local brewery including one with a gorgeous honey flavour.
- Visiting the Berrima market where we met a gorgeous Samoyed dog from Siberia whose fur is used to make beautiful, warm beenies.
- Strolling around the historical section of Berrima. It's a beautiful town with the most visually aesthetic jail in all of Australia.
Lowlight
- It turned out to be a super-spreader event! JC, Juni, Jassenka, Kim and Derek all came down with Covid. I dodged the bullet - the 2nd time. The first time was Christina, my housemate, getting it, Martin and I both avoided it that time.

What an amazing place. I love the wooden ducks and those gorgeous scarves and beanies. Would not have liked the leeches!
