Sunday in Cowes, Philip Island. 02/21/2010
Our trip into Cowes at Phillip Island today was a bit of a blast from the past mixed with high fashion clothes and costume jewellery to window shop.  I saw a ladies, cabin trunk at the Sunday Market, form the days before aeroplane. travel was popular and the long sea voyage to the motherland, was quite common for young Australian women to do, between leaving school and settling down. My sister had one of these cabin trunks, when she sailed for England at age 22, having worked from the age of 16 while attending night school, and saving every penny to do her long planed journey, some 45 years ago.  I saw an old weaving loom, at a Sunday, market. The sound of an old recording of a tenor’s voice filled the air; it brought back memories of my childhood and the old record players. I enjoyed the sound.  Then I fell in love with this old dray, outside a Mexican, restaurant. Comments Comments are closed. | Kathy Shell on Facebook Author and Artist
