funky city ....

hello from funky melbourne .... i love this city! it is awesome!

we are staying with our good friends who live here, and we always have so much fun together. Our girls love each other and play so well together .... its a tonne of fun! they also have wii - such a fun game ... my arm is actually sore after all the tennis matches - LOL! also they have sing star .... yes, its been tragic! man we are bad!

we have been into the city, went for ice-creams at this cool ice-cream shop called trampoline - wikid ice-cream. Went into the Crown Casino building hoping to see the christmas display, but they were just dismantling it ... it looked very cool.




yesterday we went on Puffing billy (a train ride an hour north) which was a hoot (sorry had to do that) the kids loved it. it was very hot yesterday, and again today .... we stopped at Lakeside and had lunch, went on the paddle bikes - oh my, what a leg work out they are! Obviously my fitness needs some work - LOL! cringing getting back on my bike after such a break!




We are chilling today, everyone is a bit tired .... good to vege out and enjoy the lack of routine. Have some more cool things planned ... holidays are the best!
