The dogs of Newtown

On Saturday, a friend from work and I headed out to the hippiest suburb in Sydney: Newton. Another friend from work makes and sells vegan cheese and has a stall at the weekend Newton Markets. So we decided to visit her, buy some cheese, and stroll around Newtown.

The lovely Becc with her famous cheeses!

 

The Newtown Markets are way different from the Kirribilli Markets that happen right near our apartment: they really mirror the hippie, earthy vibe of Newtown, whereas ours are a bit... different. For example, there were lots of people at Newtown who seemingly just showed up with a rack of their old clothes to sell. So there wasn't as much browsing as I usually do at our markets, but it was still fun.

One of the best things was all the dogs. Newtown is dog-crazy and they were everywhere!

This dog was so cute, I bought a candle from him. How could I not?! The dog's human stood up the whole time we were there, while the dog sat in the chair. =)

We didn't stay in Newtown for too long, but we had a great time. There was a fun vibe there, with everyone just happy to be out on a sunny Saturday. It was a lovely day in a different kind of place!
