Mount Dandenong on not-so-Good Friday

The weather man reported 24 degrees and a clear and sunny day. Apparently not. pfft. Stupid weather forecasts.

It was raining the way up Mt. Dandenong and sunny the way back. Pfft.
At least we visited the famous Pie in the Sky Pie shop in Olinda. To be honest, I think the pies there are slightly over-rated. The savoury pie we had was ok..a little more salt would have done the trick.

Thier steak pie.

My highlight of the day was actually the Sweet Apple and Raspberry Pie I had. The pastry was nice and buttery and not too crumbly too. Sweet!
It was too bad Miss Marples was packed with people, otherwise I would have had those heavenly scones I oh-so yearned for.....
Nevermind....next trip...next trip.....

This was good. A nice balance of sweet from the
apples and sour from the raspberry plus buttery
and crunchy goodness from the crust and creamy
foamy textures from the double cream.
Ahhh a piece of heaven!

Although it rained wherever we walked, we still managed to capture some good shots.

I was afraid of the bird. It pecks. eeks!
