Merimbula with Amy in November

I wanted to go down to Merimbula to visit the branch of the church there so Amy came down with me. We drove down on the Saturday and stayed Saturday and Sunday night and came home Monday. We stayed in the Palms Apartments this time which were very comfortable and had a lovely relaxing time. We arrived late Saturday afternoon so didn't do much, we enjoyed a nice meal at a little Italian Restaurant and then just chilled out at our accommodation.


 Sunday morning before church I went for a walk along the lake and the board walk, it was a lovely sunny but cool morning.  Merimbula Branch is just a small one so I had offered to give a talk which they are always grateful for. I stayed for munch and mingle after church which was nice, always nice to catch up with the members at Merimbula



In the afternoon Amy and I drove down to Pambula and went for a walk in the wetlands there then went for a walk along the board walk back at Merimbula.



On Monday Amy and I went to Potoroo Palace a small animal sanctuary just outside of Merimbula, we had a lovely morning and Amy was is in animal heaven.




We went to the keepers talk at 11am and got to watch Priscilla the Echidna having her morning tea, it was just Amy and I, we spent about half an hour with the Keeper learning all about echidnas, we got to touch her ( rather than pat) it was fascinating to watch her clean this plate and then pick up all the stuff that got pushed of the edge.

We had booked a wombat encounter so Amy and I spent 30 minutes with the keeper and Millie the wombat who is blind. We got to cuddle and pat her and play with her it was great fun.




We then headed home via Candelo, stopping for lunch at the lovely cafe there and back home about 5pm, it was a great little trip away.
