Robyn’s mum was Patricia.
We’d already walked her street, but we could hardly be expected to walk past another?!

Wendy is Robyn’s aunt, Patricia’s sister.
We were in Melbourne for the weekend visiting Wendy, so after breakfast we went for a drive and walked Wendy Mews, not far from where she lives on Melbourne’s fringe.
Not an overly taxing walk… Wendy Mews is about 30 metres long.
It’s in a brand new estate with many houses yet to finishing their landscaping.
Gorgeous morning for a walk with good company.
Joanne Place, Bilgola Plateau

Behind Newport Beach there’s a considerable hill which rises up to Bilgola Plateau. Over the crest and down the hill towards Pittwater is Joanne Place.
So… after breakfast at Newport, by the time we walked down Joanne Place our legs were feeling it!
Pretty little street in a lovely area of Sydney.
Anthony Rd, Castle Hill

A gorgeous early spring day for a walk in Sydney this weekend. Sun’s out, blue sky; just perfect.
Georgia and Anthony are my brother’s children and it was nice to find that Anthony Road in Castle Hill and Georgia Terrace in Kellyville are both fairly close to each other so it made sense to walk the two of them in the one go.
Lots of large McMansions in Kellyville; new houses are are the first ones built on new sub-divisions.
Anthony Rd, though, totally different. Older weatherboards that will not be there for much longer as the suburb changes markedly with the building of the new rail connection.

Lots of large McMansions in Kellyville; new houses are are the first ones built on new sub-divisions. New parks being built to cater for the increasing number of children who have nowhere to play in their own backyards – a lot of these houses have a huge footprint and sit on smaller blocks.
Very different to Anthony Rd, which has a lot of older weatherboards that will not be there for much longer as the suburb changes markedly with the building of the new rail connection.
Kate St, Turramurra

Kate Street is near Kissing Point Road and is a dead end street set amongst houses that are very similar to my grandmother’s house, all built probably around the early 1900s. Lots of huge gardens, huge trees, and a distinct lack of lawns owing to the shade and leaf letter.
At the end of Kate Street is Mimosa Oval and National Park or Forest that runs the whole way to Avondale Dam which is near Pymble ladies’ College.
There’s lots of Fox baiting going on in the area so Bailey didn’t do too much exploring.
Cameron St Birchgrove

Cameron is one of nephews who is getting married to Eliza next week, so a good time to walk Cameron St. on a glorious winter morning.
Birchgrove is a fabulous suburb, so close to the city with a wide range of off-leash dog parks with harbour access. We could very easily downsize to here.
As we’ve found in previous years, a great variety of little pubs and cafes too.
