Back to Melbourne

Back in Melbourne after the week at home, Straight back in the van and headed up to a mates block near Castlemaine, It is so good to see old friends again, no one has changed, we had great fun up there.  Thanks to Trev and Ona for having us, you have an amazing spot to escape from the city's hussle and bustle and my 21 point turn to get out of there was legendary.

 

Then back into Melbourne, have been to the Vic Markets, and an AFL Match at the MCG, a pity about the result, Carlton lost, if we had of been a couple of days earlier we could have caught up with the Costas, at least their team had a win. We were lucky we booked when we did as the game was a sell out with close to 85,000 spectators in attendance.

More catching up with family and friends, you can't beat the choice for coffee houses down here, but Adelaide still has the best cream buns (Yum).

We have taken off down to Rosebud for a couple of days before heading over to the Great Ocean Road and catching up with some great friends at Otway N.P.  Planning to see the 12 (sorry 8) appostles and other iconic landmarks along the coast from there.  Before any of this however we must catch the Queenscliffe ferry from Sorento. As the ocean waves and my stomach don't really go well together, should make for an interesting morning, especially if the wind is blowing and the seas are as choppy as they are now.
In saying this though we are lucky (or I am lucky) the ferry is in the bay, we went over to the back beaches today and watched the surfing comps going on, Incredible waves. Have also seen Arthur's seat, and for exercise did the Cape Schank walk, and we thought those Port Lincoln sandhills were a good work out!
