Bus Trip to The Grounds and Antique Warehouse

Our residents had a wonderful day out to the Mitchell Road Antique and Design Centre, The Grounds at Alexandria, and Centennial Park. It was a fabulous sunny day, perfect weather for having a leisurely lunch and a wander around The Grounds. First stop was the Antique and Design Centre, a huge warehouse full of antique items and fascinating bric-a-brac. Two hours later everyone had had just enough time to see everything they wanted to, plus do some shopping, and were ready for lunch. When they got to The Grounds they were excited to see the Christmas decorations going up. After another couple of hours having a beautiful relaxed lunch, and time spent drooling over the fabulous selection of cakes, our kind community bus driver took a detour via Centennial Park to look at the lake. A great end to a lovely day – watching the ducks, black swans and turtles. The bus even had a visit from two ferrets being walked by their owners, who enjoyed the attention, and caused much amusement! Back home at 3pm and our residents reflected on a fun-filled day.
