We settled for lunch at the old Golden City Hotel, which was quiet when we arrived and roaring with locals when we left, all out for a weekend chin wag, a late breakfast or an early brunch.
This was follwed by some window shopping and a walk down memory lane, seeing all the shop fronts with the same displays 5 years on, and other that had changed hands, changing the street scape from the one in my mind. After all the window shopping and reminiscing it was time for another coffee, and for the second time in the same day, we found ourselves at another table 8! My number! :D This one had a very cute pair of 'ghostly' salt and pepper shakers. I've always liked this store, which now has a cafe (genius!), it was just a pity that the coffee was burnt, the machine needed a clean and I needed an extra sugar to get it down (you're good Ballarat... but your coffee's a little less than average!) Not that I'm city coffee snob :)
It was a lovely warm winters afternoon, with more (waterless) lake side pics to come...
