Historic Nelson Walk

Today was a busy, but productive, work day which didn't end until about 3 PM, after which we decided to do a historic walk around central Nelson.

The walk took in the Anglican cathedral and other historic sites, including South Street, which as shown in the photo below, is a short street of houses from the 1860s.  They have all been lovingly restored and several are available as "Executive" (read "expensive") rental units, for about 4 times what we are paying for our cozy apartment on the hill.




Being a slow day for photographs, I have added a few more gastronomic delights from the past week.  First off, a baguette that Marlene had for lunch at the Yello Cafe (fast becoming one of our favourites).  The sandwich contained roasted pumpkin, onions, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, pesto and feta cheese.  I can attest that it was good, as I had to finish it for her.



And secondly, I managed to snap a photo of a Cadbury marshmellow easter egg, before Marlene devoured it.  Note that it comes complete with yolk.  We also saw a dark chocolate peppermint marshmellow egg in a store, which sounds great, but we haven't tried one yet....there is always tomorrow.
