A cloudy day and with it the temperature has dropped a good 10 degrees. Met up with Ed, Lydia and guy called Peter who is a great lad. First stop was the Japanese Gardens. Having found the gates shut and chained, we slipped the lock (ha ha) and had the whole place to ourself until we were thrown out by the security guards 30 mins later. Never mind cos we had more than enough time to walk around and take photos before heading off to the beach. It was OK but very exposed to a cold pacific wind so after walking for an hour or so it was time to warm up.
Ignoring the restaurants recommended by the Lonely Planet we found a small cafe populated by locals. Dish of the day was Cazuela, a beef stew served with potato, sweetcorn, pumpkin, rice and a warm crusty roll to mop up the juice. The cost ... just $1.50 and the best meal I´ve had since I´ve been here.
