It wasn\u2019t easy picking out-of-town excursions. Western Australia is huge, and east, south, north, each direction is so different from the others. One place I wanted to visit was Cape Leeuwin in the south, where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet. So, I took a day trip, and while it was well-organized and covered all the high spots there and back, it was a heck of a long ride. So, when I determined to visit Kalbarri National Park and the Houtman Abrolhos Islands northward up the coast, I decided to stay in the small city of Geraldton. Staying in smaller cities is a great way to get to know another country or state better; and it would save loads of time going back and forth from Perth. Staying in Geraldton turned out to be a great choice.<\/p>\n<p>See Around Geraldton \u2013 wildflowers, shipwrecks, and big nature for more info about the park and islands!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1e064edb e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1e064edb\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ccce624 e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3ccce624\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2158f92b elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2158f92b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Geraldton<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-530df192 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"530df192\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49e407ed elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"49e407ed\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Geraldton is a four-hour hop from Perth by car or bus, or a short flight. Maps suggested all the in-town sights were walkable, so I flew and skipped the car hire. As our flight approached Geraldton, the cabin crew took a head count of passengers needing taxis. The flight crew called ahead. Taxi drivers identified us by seat number. Be attentive, and press the call button if asked, or you could be out of luck. I didn\u2019t see another taxi until the one I\u2019d arranged for picked me up the day I flew back to Perth. Hailing a taxi on the street didn\u2019t seem to be something you did in Geraldton.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve spent plenty of time in beach towns, and should have known that a town right on the coast will spread along the shore. And, Geraldton does spread. So, sometimes getting around, such as to the Western Australia Museum, or to Priceline for more Elastoplasts (adhesive bandages), was a long hike. Still, a car wasn\u2019t essential. I could have spent more time in places I visited than walking there and back, but I got better at plotting routes, combining visits, learning the back ways, and I discovered more about Geraldton. And think of all the steps I got.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c07ec e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6c07ec\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-15c923cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"15c923cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"378\" height=\"385\" src=\"https:\/\/lineontravel.com\/website_6fa5d958\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Geraldton.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-1914\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lineontravel.com\/website_6fa5d958\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Geraldton.jpg 378w, https:\/\/lineontravel.com\/website_6fa5d958\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Geraldton-295x300.jpg 295w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 378px) 100vw, 378px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5bb2bc1 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5bb2bc1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Geraldton\u2019s busy port shields to town from dependence on tourism, but the tourism sector is well-developed, too.<\/h6>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a612642 e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a612642\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93f6f68 e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"93f6f68\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78a3629 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"78a3629\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Getting My Bearings<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ecbde80 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"ecbde80\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5cbb6a elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c5cbb6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Since I planned to walk, I picked a place to stay that looked close to what I thought of as center. It was generally central, but Weelaway House was closer to one edge of center, and most of my destinations were on the other edge, up the shore. Still, I enjoyed Weelaway, a comfortable, historic house (1862) in a real neighborhood, that\u2019s sort of a DIY B&amp;B, with self-check-in, make your own breakfast from bread, spreads, coffee and tea provided in the common kitchen, and a nice parlor for collapsing after a long walk, or having a chat with other guests. When I met local people and they asked where I was staying, to a person they knew Weelaway. I was the only guest without a car during my stay. As other people drove off for the day (some to work sites), I slung on my backpack and tromped into town. Until I got my bearings, I found my way back home by looking for the huge date palms in the side yard.<\/p>\n<p>In any town an obvious first thing to do is go to the local Visitor Centre. And it was a good start in Geraldton \u2013 the staff were energetic and helpful, offering plenty of options even for pedestrians.

I liked the place, the food, and I knew the songs.<\/p>\n<p>I also caught a lunch at Jaffle Shack on the foreshore, a place with good sandwiches (jaffles) and drinks, that seems to close up like a suitcase at night.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-99eddcd e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"99eddcd\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b438c1 e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3b438c1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f30cff elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5f30cff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Sights in Town<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dc74137 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"dc74137\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9bed343 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9bed343\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I went to most of the pedestrian-accessible sights, and all were worth visiting. Sightseeing on foot could be long, urban walking, not a stroll on the country, but only getting to the HMAS Sydney Memorial was a rigorous walk. Early on, I underestimated the duration of walks and too closely targeted recurring tours at different sights. I\u2019ll do this one at 10:30! And this one at 11:30! So, after a dash downhill from the Sydney memorial tour to the Western Australia Museum Shipwrecks Gallery tour, I learned to spread out my visits.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few words about some of the places I visited \u2013 see websites such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitgeraldton.com.au\/\">this one<\/a> for more about the many local attractions, and see Around Geraldton for more on what I did in the environs.<\/p>\n<p>The HMAS Sydney Memorial commemorates the 1941 sinking off Western Australia of the light cruiser Sydney and the loss of its entire 645 crew, after an encounter with a German ship disguised as a Dutch merchant. The Memorial is high above town, a stop for the history and the views. I recommend taking the tour, especially for those of us not familiar with the history. A follow-up visit to the Western Australia Museum, with its Sydney-related exhibits, will close the circle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f8e9437 e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f8e9437\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-251a7c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"251a7c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"378\" height=\"385\" src=\"https:\/\/lineontravel.com\/website_6fa5d958\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/District-Hospital.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-1917\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lineontravel.com\/website_6fa5d958\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/District-Hospital.jpg 378w, https:\/\/lineontravel.com\/website_6fa5d958\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/District-Hospital-295x300.jpg 295w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 378px) 100vw, 378px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-075c23b elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"075c23b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Geraldton Hospital<\/h6>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1fe57bb e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"1fe57bb\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63850af elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"63850af\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The Western Australia Museum in Geraldton is excellent, with well curated exhibits and a major exhibition about shipwrecks off the local coast, including the Batavia, the infamous Dutch East India Company ship that ran aground in the Abrolhos Islands in 1629. Take all the tours if you have time. I took the informative Shipwrecks Gallery tour, a well-delivered overview in a gallery full of remarkable artifacts. The Sydney exhibits, including videos, are very moving. The gift shop is well-stocked. See Around Geraldton for more on the Batavia and Abrolhos!<\/p>\n<p>The Victorian-era, former district hospital was built in the late 19th century on Florence Nightingale\u2019s principals with big windows and wide verandahs. It\u2019s a lovely, airy building. There\u2019s an interesting display created by former hospital nurses just inside. Nurses must have had some muscles to lift that porcelain bedpan.<\/p>\n<p>Here also, I suggest the guided tour. Former nurse Karen led my group and shared health stories along with anecdotes about the town\u2019s history. For one: an early rat-eradication plan that offered a bounty for each dead rat was successful, but although rats disappeared from the streets, they were still brought in for the bounty. Karen said resourceful townspeople had started breeding them.<\/p>\n<p>The hospital property also had a second life as a minimum-security prison. According to Karen, prisoners were treated so well that warders took roll four times a day to see if anyone had broken in. The nearby Old Gaol is now a craft center where artisans work in the cells. Lovely things to buy, but it would be difficult for me to work in there.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a6b097 e-flex e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no elementor-invisible e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4a6b097\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aabba35 e-con-full e-flex wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-child\" data-id=\"aabba35\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e6be0e0 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e6be0e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Churches You Must See<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-feb3ad6 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"feb3ad6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4fcd3ca elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4fcd3ca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I visited two notable churches, the Catholic cathedral of St. Francis Xavier, and the Geraldton Anglican Cathedral.

The footprint is a star; the stained glass is original to the design; the baptismal font is shaped like a coffin to symbolize death and rebirth. Western Australia minerals are embedded in the altar. The church\u2019s green-carpeted interior is a single, enormous space that I would imagine airy on a hot WA summer day. Or maybe not.

I was in Western Australia\u2019s capital Perth for a couple of weeks and wanted to see what I could of the west. It wasn\u2019t easy picking out-of-town excursions. Western Australia is huge, and east, south, north, each direction is so different from the others. One place I wanted to visit was Cape Leeuwin in the south, where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet. So, I took a day trip, and while it was well-organized and covered all the high spots there and back, it was a heck of a long ride. So, when I determined to visit Kalbarri National Park and the Houtman Abrolhos Islands northward up the coast, I decided to stay in the small city of Geraldton. Staying in smaller cities is a great way to get to know another country or state better; and it would save loads of time going back and forth from Perth. Staying in Geraldton turned out to be a great choice. See Around Geraldton \u2013 wildflowers, shipwrecks, and big nature for more info about the park and islands! Geraldton Geraldton is a four-hour hop from Perth by car or bus, or a short flight. Maps suggested all the in-town sights were walkable, so I flew and skipped the car hire. As our flight approached Geraldton, the cabin crew took a head count of passengers needing taxis. The flight crew called ahead. Taxi drivers identified us by seat number. Be attentive, and press the call button if asked, or you could be out of luck. I didn\u2019t see another taxi until the one I\u2019d arranged for picked me up the day I flew back to Perth. Hailing a taxi on the street didn\u2019t seem to be something you did in Geraldton. I\u2019ve spent plenty of time in beach towns, and should have known that a town right on the coast will spread along the shore. And, Geraldton does spread. So, sometimes getting around, such as to the Western Australia Museum, or to Priceline for more Elastoplasts (adhesive bandages), was a long hike. Still, a car wasn\u2019t essential. I could have spent more time in places I visited than walking there and back, but I got better at plotting routes, combining visits, learning the back ways, and I discovered more about Geraldton. And think of all the steps I got. Geraldton\u2019s busy port shields to town from dependence on tourism, but the tourism sector is well-developed, too. Getting My Bearings Since I planned to walk, I picked a place to stay that looked close to what I thought of as center. It was generally central, but Weelaway House was closer to one edge of center, and most of my destinations were on the other edge, up the shore. Still, I enjoyed Weelaway, a comfortable, historic house (1862) in a real neighborhood, that\u2019s sort of a DIY B&amp;B, with self-check-in, make your own breakfast from bread, spreads, coffee and tea provided in the common kitchen, and a nice parlor for collapsing after a long walk, or having a chat with other guests. When I met local people and they asked where I was staying, to a person they knew Weelaway. I was the only guest without a car during my stay. As other people drove off for the day (some to work sites), I slung on my backpack and tromped into town. Until I got my bearings, I found my way back home by looking for the huge date palms in the side yard. In any town an obvious first thing to do is go to the local Visitor Centre. And it was a good start in Geraldton \u2013 the staff were energetic and helpful, offering plenty of options even for pedestrians. I picked up a good map, booked a flight to the Abrolhos Islands and then went off to find food. Patio outside my room at Weelaway. Food I like good meals but I\u2019m no foodie, so didn\u2019t get into Geraldton\u2019s food scene \u2013 and didn\u2019t even eat much seafood. Sacrilege! I found two good places and stuck with them, along with Woolworth\u2019s for groceries. After all, I had a kitchen. Caf\u00e9 Fleur is a few blocks along Marine Terrace from the Visitor Centre. There was a crowd and it looked comfortable. It was getting on early afternoon, and good thing I didn\u2019t waste time getting there. The caf\u00e9 closed about the time my food was served, so watch the opening hours! My lunch salad was good, and a local couple I\u2019d met earlier came over to say hello. That made me feel like I belonged. I came back to Caf\u00e9 Fleur for lunch another day, and had a big, delicious breakfast there on Day 2. Caf\u00e9 Fleur is not noted in my edition of Lonely Planet, but it gets good reviews online, and I recommend it. \u00a0 Waiting at The Provincial was fun in itself. The Provincial was on \u201cmy\u201d end of Marine Terrace, and it became my dinner place. This restaurant does get a nod in my Lonely Planet. I enjoyed wine while waiting for good casual food (pork tacos, interesting pizzas), tried to make drawings of the eerie but droll graphics, and people watched. It\u2019s a fun place.
