HAHNDORF

Thursday bee travelled up to Hahndorf ohik is about an hour away through some very picturesque countryside . We arrived a little after 10. AM just in time for breakfast. I had located a place on the internet that did chocolate or maple syrup Belgian waffles. It is called Chocolate at No. 5, had a look at the mocha photo below. Along with their own coffee and chocolate this place was an ideal place to start the holiday with a great breakfast. And so it was.

Hahndorf was originally settled by Germans so there are a lot of  German shops and German foods. We wandered around for about an hour looking in this shop and that before deciding to head off to Mount Barker which turned out to be  a nice country town but nothing flash, so we moved on to Strathalbyne . 

Strathalbyne is the opposite. Almost all of the buildings are historical and there are antique and collectable shops everywhere . It is claimed as the antique capital of S.A. We spent quite a while here going from store to store. We didn't buy anything which is probably just as well.

The  trip back was scenic and took in the little town of Mt Compass. We had a delightful afternoon tea here before finishing the journey home.

I've added some photo's from our room.
