Carrara Markets

Being Saturday morning we decided to do the garage sales circuit. Finding nothing of interest, we went to check out an auction house to view items to be auctioned on Sunday and Monday. A huge display of furniture and everything from boats to sinks on display. Rather daunting!
We did buy a washing machine (pre-loved) on Friday via the classifieds in the Gold Coast Bulletin, a compact 4.5 kg NEC fuzzy logic, which will fit in the expanda van comfortably.
Adjacent to the Auction house were the Carrara Markets, covering a vast area also. Our trip was not in vain! We came away with lots of locally grown produce including peas ( which Steve shelled and ate raw), spinach, butter beans, tomatoes, fruit etc. It is such a treat to have access to fresh produce!
