Strudel by the Sea

Okay, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. It was actually gugelhupf by the sea.

This is the Monarch in St Kilda, a slice of Old Vienna in Melbourne.

The gugelhupf was good, but it’s definitely not a light snack. Feeling weighed down, we went for a walk along the beach.

(Looking back towards Melbourne.)

I’ve missed the sea, so the combination of cake and salty air were a tonic to combat the winter blues.

(Looking out to sea.)

Having said that, it seems like Spring may be on its way. I don’t want to jinx anything, but there’s a lot of blossom on the trees and less of a nip in the air. [Crosses fingers and toes.]
