A lovely chilled out weekend

After an extravagant weekend in Melbourne, we decided this one would be a more chilled out affair. We had a nice lie in on Saturday morning and then made our way to Leichhardt, which is the Italian precinct of Sydney. We had a wander arond the Italian Forum, which is an Italian-style piazza in the middle of Leichhardt with lots of Italian shops and restaurants.

It was completely dead so we decided to walk over to another suburb, Haberfield, which is meant to be quite Italian too. There was a bit more happening here; we found a nice delicatessen and bought lots of Italian meats, cheeses and vegetables (which we devoured for dinner in the evening - delicious) and then we went to a pizzeria called Napoli in Bocca for a spot of lunch. Nice pizza, but not as good as the pizza you get in Teramo near where Daddy is from in Italy.

After lunch I treated myself to an Italian fig biscuit (they're amazing - whenever we used to go to Italy, we used to get them from the local pasticceria). It was delicious, but I was slightly put off by Dave staring at me and wimpering whilst I was eating it - he is still on his diet.

Sunday was another chilled out day - we spent most of it by the pool sunbathing and reading - the little pool and lounge area at our flat really makes it feel like you're on holiday, it's lovely when the weather is good!
