Friday

 I went for a big (for me) walk down Edwards Point because I thought there was a fairy settlement there. 5.6 km later I was back home and not a fairy to be seen!

Into the park

Deciding NOT to walk the 6km walk!!

Following the path

Over the wetlands on the board walk

following the path to the beach

stopping for a rest at the Big Seat

following the beach home.
Saturday I didn't got for a walk as it was pouring all day, so I found out a bit more information and today went for a walk in a different direction.
Today I was in the right place

Love the sign

there are several hanging residences

complete with little gardens

Aren't people clever

And then there is the Resort for Retired Fairies. This was made by a woman who lives at Indented Heads, to fill in her time over the last 6 weeks of stay at home.

Lots of little fairy homes

The fairies have different coloured wings, the darker they are the naughtier the fairy is I have read!

The gnome does not seem impressed with his new neighbours!

The fairies had their pets with them.

The all look very happy.

Relaxing and enjoying their retirement.

I wonder if these glow at night?

The fairy dell. I enjoyed my walk here today, there were many many mosquito's here, enjoying the visitors! There was a family with young children looking around when I got there and another family arrived as I was leaving. Great to go and have a look at.

Meanwhile back at the house I have sandwiched and quilted this quilt made by Wendy from the Guild. 

I have also done some quilting on the Kevin and Kathleen quilt

and watched this DVD which I really enjoyed, might have another look today.
I am off to do some sewing or maybe I will sit and read in the sun. So good to have choices.
Happy stitching.
