Melbourne, Australia - 9th February 2012

By: fleursmum

Hi Everyone,

Boy we had a big day out today!! We went on the train to the city (Melbourne) and then had a ride on a tram around the city.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7015/6845060357_f19cdbee3d.jpg
Here I am at Docklands - this was old docks area but has been done up and now has apartments, restaurants and a hugs sports complex - the bridge in the background is the Bolte Bridge.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7159/6845064209_8a91876233.jpg
here I am at the tram stop
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7206/6845065503_aa60486501.jpg
looking out the front of the tram
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7172/6845078199_cce3efff47.jpg
Now I am on the steps of the State Parliament building looking over to one of  the theaters in Melbourne (woops my head got in the way a bit here!! ;)
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7006/6845088833_01c8f93e4a.jpg
Now I am on one of the bridges that crossed the Yarra River - South Bank on the left and the city on the right. South Bank has the Arts area, hotels and restaurants
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7193/6845090085_b000ac60ec.jpg
this spire is on the top of the Arts centre
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7004/6845095101_ab3f70f709.jpg
this statue is called Family 2, so we joined in and made the family bigger!!
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7172/6845096267_d63f4b4bfa.jpg
on this one the statue had been taken away - it was called Family 1 - so we became the family!! :D
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7171/6845098823_377857040b.jpg
Here I am having a little rest beside the Yarra River - lovely day here!  B)
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7143/6845104255_888be162db.jpg
I watched some ladies rowing on the river
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7202/6845107965_06b62b516a.jpg
Back on the bridge now looking towards the Melbourne Cricket Ground - this is where Australian Rules football is played and of course cricket!!
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7022/6845114711_221b819334.jpg
Here I am in Federation Square looking towards Flinders Street Station
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7192/6845121885_afe2362f9f.jpg
Now here is Flinders Street Station behind me.

More soon

Love and hugs

Hi Everyone,

We drove here from Ocean Grove - just up the coast - this area is known as the Shipwreck Coast - many sail boats ran aground here and all along this stretch of coast.

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7064/6860928985_0f56d2ba07.jpg
this is the entrance to Barwon Heads - this part is calmer

By: fleursmum

Hi Everyone,

How are you all?
Today we had a walk along the beach at St Leonards  - the sun  had come out!!  B)
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7210/6860976829_e28c12c4ce.jpg
Here I am on the walking track at the top of the Bluff

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7054/6860982513_0069fd5485.jpg
this beach is usually calm - no waves- but today it is still very windy and so the wind is pushing up the waves
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7192/6860991865_979989c945.jpg
a little rest on the way
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7043/6860993215_fccf7614b2.jpg

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7066/6860999611_1b558837b3.jpg
here is part of the track to the beach
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7186/6861011211_9fcc4d201e.jpg

Brunswick, Melbourne, Australia - 13th February 2012

By: fleursmum

Hi Everyone,

Today we drove into the city again because one of the staff at Harley Heaven in the city told Sue there was a cafe called Route 66 Cafe in Brunswick opposite the Harley heaven shop there! Phew! So we walked and walked up Sydney Road and finally found Harley Heaven. But.....there was no Route 66 Cafe to be seen.
So, we went into the Harley shop and asked - they said the cafe was Highway 31 and yes it was over the road.
So we went over to have a look but it was closed!! Oh boy!! It didn't open until 11.30 and it was not 10.15 am. We took some photos anyway through the window - not very good photos - Sue says sorry and maybe we can get back there another day when it is open!  :D

Hanging Rock, Macedon Ranges, Australia - 17th February 2012

By: fleursmum

Hi Everyone,

Tonight we went to Hanging Rock - a strange rock formation near Gisborne for an outdoor concert. Sue was a bit anxious about going because there were suppose to be 12,000 people at this concert - too many for her she thought, but she went with people from work and we went too.  We got to see Rod Stewart!!! :o The stage was a long way away for me, but I got to hear everything really well.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7069/6900976969_2562fc50c2.jpg
Sue says sorry for the shakey photo!! This is at the entrance to the park - some one with a sense of humour has hung a rock from the road sign!!  :D

http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7060/6900985385_d5f03c8889.jpg
Here we all are enjoying the late afternoon sunshine - it was 28 degrees C today!
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7048/6900996369_4f1e6f8706.jpg
things are starting to happen!
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7180/6901006829_d1de46a663.jpg

I had a good time here, lots of dancing and singing

Love and hugs

Melbourne, Australia - 18th February 2012

By: fleursmum


Hi Everyone,

Today we went back to the Highway 31 Cafe to get some photos inside but the owner wasn't friendly to us - we think he got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning!!  ;) We only got two photos and Sue won't be going back there again!! Sue had hoped this would be ok for one of my life missions, but it isn't really. What do you think?

Ballarat, Australia - 21st February 2012

By: fleursmum

Hi Everyone,

Today we went to the Ballarat Wildlife Park to see some Australian animals.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7047/6930312345_94704ff7b9.jpg
Here we are going in
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7055/6930242907_83a9af5fdd.jpg
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7205/6784127068_d11e0ee447.jpg
we saw two koalas snoozing up a tree  :D
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7198/6784140332_57792900a0.jpg
this is the Tasmanian Devil - it got its name from the noise it makes ( screams) and when the early settlers in Tasmania heard these animals and saw just the red of the ears, they called them Devils. Their ears look life devils horns when the sun shines on them from behind.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7179/6784141348_c7f259de81.jpg
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7057/6930259295_0fb0b5b01e.jpg
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7210/6784147260_5f0e61a163.jpg
then I met Tilly the koala - she has a baby in her pouch, at the moment it is tiny.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7205/6930270865_3fe2044a0f.jpg
Later I met a grey kangaroo, but it was too busy eating the food mix we had for it!
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7054/6930278359_f1eeb33446.jpg
these are red kangaroos - they a nervous of people so have to be in a fenced off enclosure.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7193/6784166466_da919209b4.jpg
This is Patrick the wombat - he was trying to sleep but didn't mind us dropping in for a photo - he is nocturnal so gets up at night.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7040/6930287765_6bfb4cd7b0.jpg
over there is a giant tortoise - he really liked having his back hosed!
He isn't Australian but lives here at the park.
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7040/6930294087_c19a9f5d95.jpg
Mmmm. Sue can't remember what this is..... :rolleyes:
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7208/6930297143_aee34ec682.jpg
http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7043/6784193410_9cf173bf78.jpg
these are fresh water and salt water crocodiles we think!  :D

Love and hugs to all
Freaky
