Something unexpected happened- I had a day off on the weekend. Part of me feels guilty about this, after all, I'm missing penalty pay-rates and I always feel guilty if I'm not at work (go figure). The other part of me loves cheese. So Colin and I took of too the Sunshine Coast hinterland in search of cheese pure enough to absolve my guilt.
There is something terribly middle-aged about a road trip to Montville. Terribly GOOD that is. Where else can you find so many cuckoo clocks in one room? Germany? A factory or workshop where cuckoo clocks are made, and here, at Montville.
We also had a very nice lunch at a French restaurant and looked around for wedding rings at Antique stores. We didn't have one when we got married, and decided to just let them find us over the course of our marriage. However, I'm getting sick of waiting for the little guy to show up and ward off the creepy dude at work.
I give visiting Montville: 3.5 stars. It was better than visiting the Gold Coast, but worse than watching all the Alien films back-to-back in your winter pyjamas and eating Chorizo.
Love the first picture! Looks like a nice day, 3.5 starts aside.
ReplyDeleteThat Colin has some style. Thats pretty neat you guys decided to pick your rings up along the way. I hate my wedding ring, & I'm in the process of finding a new one.
Yeah, the boy can dress, that's for sure. 3.5 stars is pretty good, it's like a score for a middle-of-the-road comedy with a good cast. Or a good horror movie with a cruddy ending.
ReplyDeletegiant Sylvanian families bunnies are worth the visit alone
ReplyDeleteSo much good food in Montville!
ReplyDeleteDid you go to Maleny Cheese?
