Traditionally we have headed down to Melbourne for Amy's birthday or somewhere interstate. This year we did go interstate, though just across the border to Yass in NSW- an hour and 15 minutes from home. With the business of the build, being tired, and lots going on we just had one night away, and it was lovely to get away and just relax and we picked a lovely spot. We stayed at an Alpaca Farm just out of Yass, we had a lovely cabin for the night and a tour of the farm in the morning with Joy the owner, with Suzi the dog and Charlie the emu to accompany us, Amy was in heaven! We had dinner at the Ewe and Me restaruant in Yass which was delightful.
Chocolate dessert platter, including a milk chocolate and rosemary creme brulee- sounds unusual but it was delightful.
Charlie the emu- she was 5 months old, incubated from an egg and she was cuddly and so friendly. Suzi the dog who also loved cuddles.

We couldn't get too close, the baby alpaca was only 2 days old
Our cabin for the night. We spent a few hours in Yass exploring the shops and having lunch before heading home, it was a great 24 hours away and a nice way to celebate Amy's birthday.
