After our early morning walkies, Frankie, Gina, and I went to the Box Office Cafe for a scrumptious breakfast.
My Bowl of Porridge, Fruit, and nuts … Frankie enjoyed his toast and coffee
Frankie and his friend Bella, eyeing off Gina’s scrambled eggs.

Thursday evening we attended the Geelong Library’s special presentation of the famous Australian author, “Tim Winton, in conversation with Jock Serong, as they discussed Tim Winton’s new novel, JUICE. [This event was the main reason why Gina had come to Geelong]
Early morning walkies, followed by a visit to the historic Fyansford Paper Mills Precinct and a coffee break, then we drove down to Bancoora Beach to enjoy a walk in the warm sun, on the cool golden sand
We had lunch at the Moorabool Valley Chocolate Cafe and then we decided to travel over to the You Yangs National Park
By now it was late afternoon and it was time to go home and get ready for Dinner at the ‘Industrie’ Restaraunt with the Geelong Writers members
