Abbotsford convent

It really is soooo lovely , I do a market there every 3rd sunday of the month ,shirt and skirt markets, and it is just gorgeous surrounds and great food at the japanese place, lentils and the bakery. The bakery is always a buzz, they cook everything in the original hundred year old ovens that the nuns in the convent cooked in.They even have a nice set up with beer and music later in the arvo. Accross the road from the market is the Collingwood children's farm, which is an oasis in the city, unbelievable really. Park in the carpark at the farm, walk along some of the yarra trail, go to the farm ,feel like you are in the country rather than a few km's from the city, do some shopping at the market and get some great food for lunch...its my idea of the perfect sunday really, its a hidden gem
