Queen's Birthday - Melbourne


Last weekend was the Queen’s Birthday and what better way to celebrate that to take a trip to Melbourne.  Even better that I got to catch up with my good friend Devin while I was out there.  Unfortunately I wasn’t smart enough to bring my camera so I have no great photos to share, but here is the weekend in dot points.

Friday
·      Arrive at airport
·      Dinner with Dev at Vegi Bar – great vegetarian restaurant in Fitzroy
·      Great night out with some drinking and dancing
Saturday
·      Walk down the riverbank
·      Calamari, dips and a glass of wine at the first winery we find (took us a while to find one)
·      Footy game at the MCG – Geelong vs. Hawthorn – I was going for Hawthorne, who unfortunately lost by 5, but an amazing game
Sunday
·      3D Egypt movie at the museum
·      Dinner with Devin’s family
Monday
·      Drive down to St Kilda
·      People watching with Alpha, Box and Dice
·      Flight cancelled – but lucky enough to get transfered to the next available flight on Wednesday (counting my blessings since I was flying with Tiger)
Tuesday
·      Walk to the city and watch everyone going to and from work
·      Go to yoga (really didn’t have anything else that I wanted to do and I do normally go to yoga on Tuesday so thought it was a good idea – which turned out to be a great idea, because then it made me start thinking about going on a yoga retreat and bam, the rest of my Sept/Oct travels are completed).
·      Luckily got to stay rent free with Devin so really wasn’t too bad to get delayed…
