The sun came out on Saturday so we decided to take a tram ride to St. Kilda which we had only seen briefly at night and have some Aussie beach time. Steve thought the fresh sea air would blow away the cobwebs hanging around from the antics of the night before which involved an open bar.
During a walk we came across the St. Kilda Pier and we decided to walk to the end which is where the penguin viewing point is but they only come out at dusk. At the end of the pier is a little restaurant named "Little Blue" so called because of the colony of 1000 little blue penguins nearby. It was a gorgeous day and a perfect setting for brunch.
Steve had the baked eggs with chorizo, Spanish onion, feta and Napoli sauce with some toast and I enjoyed the eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and we shared some chips with aioli. Oh and two glasses of Victoria Riesling completed the meal. We really enjoyed the simple but tasty food and the setting and the sunshine on our skin. Needless to say, as is usually the case when the sun comes out, Steve got burnt and now has a very red forehead!
How's this for a view though?
