Our plan for Sunday was: 1) check out the Markets on the Mall, at Marine Terrace. 2) Grab some breakfast. 3) Drive to the Chapman Valley Fishing Park. So first, the Markets on the Mall. I overheard one of the stallholders saying that he thought the markets were a little quieter than usual – his […]
The highlight of Day 6 was our dinner at The Boatshed Restaurant.
