Berkeley Walk.

Hi all,
Well this morning for us CHUM's a Berkeley walk along the Lake was planned with chips and rolls for lunch but even though nobody invited the wind, it obviously decided to come, so we decided not to.

Instead Delia, Mary, Vanessa and I went to Jean's place ( that Jean kindly invited us to instead ) for a beautiful lunch and lots of the usual chatter and laughs.

Plus discussions about Christmas and next years weekend away.
It's never too early to work out future good times is it !

Mmmm....this is sounding about the same as every event we have....chatting and laughing which is good for the soul anyway.

Prior to Jean's place Delia, Mary and I ( in our red and purple clothing with new hats on ) went to Wollongong Harbour to take photos of the huge 3 mtr swell and as it was around high tide time, we were ready for some great Camera Club Merit Award style photos.

But sadly, once again Mother Nature stepped in, obviously annoyed about us not inviting her to Berkeley, decided the sea should be flat and the rocks and cement paths stay dry.

But it was a beautiful sunny sky and Mary kindly showed me (again I might add!!) how I "should" use my camera.


After the harbour we were definitely ready for lunch and a cuppa.



As the photos show we enjoyed ourselves and had some lovely delights on the plate to eat.
Although the strawberries bowl does seem a little empty. Never mid Bob, hopefully Jean hid a few away for you.

Jean's dogs were adoreable and showed off their 'fetching the ball' and 'stalking' skills.
Both girls get tops marks for their chosen field of expertise.


The CHUM's ladies
 Too soon it was time to go but thankyou Jean for giving us a wind free venue and to all of you for a great day out for us CHUM's.

See you all soon,
Cheryle.
