A peaceful afternoon


On our journey to Paddington we passed by Hyde Park and I knew I needed to go!
If the park name sounds familiar, it is because the Australians aren't very creative on naming things and named it after the park in London...

I found a nice park bench and sat down for a bit of reading in the shade

It was so peaceful out there

I do need to point out, before I found my great bench, I found a long lost friend - Starbucks! But instead of getting a hot peppermint mocha, like I normally do in the fall/winter in Texas, I got and iced peppermint mocha. It is 85 here and while this is not quite the same, it did the job!

Joy!

After reading a bit, I took a walk around the area and discovered the St. James Church. Absolutely beautiful!


Now everyone knows where to find me, if I am out relaxing! Not to mention the very large David Jones is across the street!
