Brunch and a Blast from the Past

Jen and Ted are eclipsing all previously known "most miles in a holiday" records. Sydney via the coast road and Jervis Bay, to Tamworth and back via The Entrance but have had a couple of nights with us.
Sunday 20th we took the chance for a leisurely brunch at the Armory Cafe (their spelling by the way and I am uncertain about whether it should be Armoury or not). It is on a stretch of the Parramatta River quite near the Silverwater Bridge and despite the 36˚ C day we enjoyed a bit of a breeze and the sight of the many ferries making their way up and down the river.
After the modest feed we wandered about the grounds of the old munitions store and worked off the worst of our breakfast excesses.
Then it was off to ice creams and cake (we skipped lunch completely!) at Lake Parramatta via 17 Irving St. Jenny and Judy insist but for the missing gum tree from in front and the new colour (no longer blue) it has not changed a bit.
It is now in a dead end street and the houses on the opposite side of the street have all gone, demolished to make way for the bridge and James Ruse Drive access from Victoria Road.
Judy suggests the above photo reminds her of waiting for the Sunday School bus, although I suspect they may have stood a little further apart those mornings.
