My Idea of Heaven
A visit to Tyrrell’s.
Ovolo Nishi, and you thought Canberra isn’t cool
The Hotel is entrance is softly lit and like the rest of the hotel is built with an industrial vibe, exposed concrete, original builder’s notes on the concrete and raw wood lining the walls. It’s warm and welcoming with a large open fireplace in the open lobby space. The lobby/bar is where you can have breakfast, happy hour happens here and it’s just a comfortable place to hang out. The front desk staff are efficient, welcoming and friendly.
A Trip Across South Australian and Victorian Wine, 2023
It always amazes me how many Australians have only ever experienced the airports of this amazing country. We have met so many people who just fly from Sydney to Melbourne or Brisbane to Adelaide. They never get in a car or on a bike or even on a bus or God forbid a bicycle and travel out of the city to lay eyeballs on this great burned land.
Our next trip…2023

When I was younger, I worked in bars and restaurants for many years. The places I worked at were either mom and pop or high-end fine dining. So, as a complete contrast, when I would go out, I developed a taste for what has been become known as “dive bars”.
