I decided that I need to drive the new car to get used to it instead of leaving it in the garage until shopping day. So we took it for a drive to Tamborine to the Bearded Dragon Hotel for lunch. It drives so smoothly and quiet. After about 45 mins we had arrived. I was a bit nervous about parking. There were so many cars in the car park but I found a space and squeezed in. All the cars must have been belonging to people having a conference in the special room because there were not many people in the restaurant. So we enjoyed a quiet lunch together.

Waiting for Bangers and Mash.
After a quiet leisurely lunch, we set off to find the car. We have to remember to look for a white one and not our old red one.
There it is all sparkly new Hyundai Kona. I erased the number plate.
Nice place
ReplyDeleteHow lovely a trip out for lunch with hubby and you driving your new car, do wish I was still driving, but I can no longer drive since breaking my arm.
ReplyDeleteI don't know much about cars. But the restaurant, using a photo from the web, looks like my ideal architecture and gardens.
ReplyDeleteYou got a new car ? Congratulations, I am thinking that next year I will sell mine. It's 10 yrs old and I only drive here around in Waterloo. Brussels is so congested and you are allowed to drive only 30 km/h. The station is near the castle and leads me directly into the center. It becomes so expensive and I use it maybe 2 times per week, I have to go to the technical control now each year ! That costs me at least 250 € plus the insurance and the petrol. That pays a taxi easily. It looks very pretty where you had lunch !
ReplyDeleteHappy driving.
ReplyDeleteI love it, it is the perfect size.. good idea to drive it and break it in, the more you do it the easier it will be..
ReplyDeleteHappy Driving Diane. Looks a nice outing and somewhere to go to get used to the new vehicle.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very nice car! It is good to get out for a drive. Take care, have a great day!
ReplyDeleteA nice place (and a spacious car) Nothing like having the restaurant to yourself to enjoy a quiet lunch.
ReplyDeleteSo many white cars. Glad you found yours. A lovely outing in ........? Have you named the car?
ReplyDeleteLovely to have a new car but there is a bit of a learning curve, like everything I suppose. You picked a great place for lunch. It all looks very nice!
ReplyDeleteGetting used to anything new takes time, Diane, which is one reason I still have an old car. Most importantly, it’s still running well. Glad your outing was a good one and with lunch as well.
