Australian Adventure – Day 23 – Lunch with Erich and Wendy

Wendy and Leonie have been friends since they worked in the same office in Cape Town in the sixties.   They have both landed up in Sydney and have remained friends all these year.  Today Wendy and her husband Erich entertained us in their beautiful home in Carey Bay.  Although the weather looked threatening it was still pleasant enough to sit outdoors and admire the view, listen to the birds and watch them at the feeder!   Other guests were Bill and Susan.  Bill is an expat from Johannesburg.  Although he has lived in Australia most of his life he has hardly a trace of Australian in his accent.   Wendy spoilt us with delicious starters that I won’t even try to describe and then went indoors for the main course and dessert.   It was a delightful day with good company, wonderful wine and fabulous food.

  1. Such a stunning house with all those beautiful trees and the birds and sea. What a spread you had, I hope you have put on as much weight as we have over the festive season. You two are so lucky to have enjoyed so much beauty in Oz.

    • Hi Mary – We have been thoroughly spoilt here in Australia – everybody is so kind and friendly. The Australians have fed us too well and I think perhaps lots of gym and diet will be called for when we get home!
