Up to the mountain top
April 5, 2010 § 4 Comments
Going up to Mount Dandenong on a public holiday is fast becoming my family’s favourite tradition. The drive up is always fun and so refreshing to be surrounded by endless rows of trees instead of houses and the view from up on top is stunningly scenic, especially on a nice clear day (even though, we’ve been up there on an overcast day and it’s still spectacular). Not to mention how much I love shopping for antiques and rare little gems up in the little towns of Olinda and Sassafrass, sadly this time we were too exhausted to bother searching for parking. I long to just stay at a spa or even a homely B&B and just absorb the tranquility (ok maybe not during bushfire season)…
Ok, pan down a little and you’ll see I’m hiding something hugely sinful… Oh yeah, flip flops, because of recent complications with a foot injury I’ve been ordered to wear sandals or flip flops. To me, flip flops are like uggs, indoor only or maybe under certain conditions like at the beach or snow (for uggs).
For those who haven’t yet seen my mum…
Hope your easter long weekends were great and (getting a little preachy here) sadly I didn’t get to go any easter services because of my busy schedule and guests staying with us so for the religious ones among us ”‘Christ the Lord is risen to-day,’ Sons of men and angels say. Raise your joys and triumphs high; Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply.” Charles Wesley

You look lovely here!
Don’t worry, if you hadn’t pointed us in the direction of your feet, I wouldn’t have even noticed the flip flops! I too only reserve them for the beach or on really CBF days. This happens very rarely.
Hope you feet heal soon!

I love the dandenongs too, getting back to nature! Love your little casual ensemble, thongs are fine… occasionally.
They aren’t that bad
Try gladiator sandals, I love them although it may not be the season for the.

What a delightful way to spend the weekend. I hope your tootsies are feeling better soon lovely x
