It's been ages I have not been to Warrandyte... It's only about 30mins away from Melbourne. A little township that offers lots of food and arty stuffs... and there's this pathway where you could walk around the river and see people kayaking or canoeing...
The last time I went was probably at least 4 to 5 yrs ago... and I always wanted to try Kayaking there because the river is quite calm - would be suitable for beginner I guess...
Anyway, the place has developed a lot since... The walking path along the river has been upgraded and there's so many people walking around there now then before... We were walking there to search for a picnic spot, but we couldn't find any as it's either too bushy or too wet and sandy)! ...
By the time we finished walking and drove to a nearby park and set up our picnic area... It was already quite late... We only sat there for probably 30mins and decided to pack up and leave... The wind is getting COLD and shadows of the trees were growing longer and bigger as the sun started to set...
Well, on our way back to the city, I suddenly remember Sutdley Park Boathouse at Yarra Bend Park... Another beautiful area just right outside the city and some part of the hill could overlook the city night lights (a substitute to Mt.Dandenong if you don't wanna drive too far)... Unfortunately, the beautiful Boathouse (fine dining) was not opened until 6pm or 7pm... and I think we could only hire the boat or canoe to row along the river in the morning or early arvo... Perhaps I shall come back again next time, cos it's such a lovely place!! ... =)
(Sorry Rabbit... I forgot about this place while you were here... Perhaps during your next trip? ...come to Melb again!! =)
At night we went to a Vietnamese Restaurant along Richmond and we tried out the Vietnamese Pancake and I'm very impressed because I like it! ...All you need to do is to use the Lettuce to wrap the pancake... The Pancake is egg based and has meat and prawn and lots of beansprout on it)...
Then we were searching for a Lounge or Cafe... Drove to Chapel Street to have Cheesecake at Cafe Greco (can't go wrong with their strawberries cheesecake)... and we walked along before we headed home and end the night...
