So after holding back tears on Thursday at the airport as I said goodbye to the kids we started our two plan journey to Melbourne.
We got into Melbourne just on peak hour traffic. I hadn't been to Melbourne in about 15 years. It was for my 3rd cousins wedding...
We checked into our hotel and were given a complimentary room upgrade! Our trip was off to a great start.

I wore them on Friday too after the Bloggers Brunch until I searched out a pair of sandals at the Novo sale. |
Friday so us head our seperate ways as I went and watched this
while he went and walked around here
and took photo's of these
Oh and he also walked around the Prahran Markets and devoured some food!
We got all touristy in the afternoon and checked out the Old Melbourne Goal
and The Tutankhamen Exhibition. Loved the exhibition and B said he was glad I made him go.
Friday night we headed out for Yum Cha
and a walk around China Town.
He was in awe of the crabs. Child... |
I was in awe of the great coffee! |
I'll post more about the Bloggers Brunch later in the week. We are all operating on not much sleep at the moment as our nights have been filled with Caden coughing and vomitting since we got back. The poor little bugger has some kind of bug and is now on antibiotics. I have everything crossed that no-one else gets it.
Have you been to Melbourne? Are you lucky enough to live there?
I am linking up with Jess from Diary of a SAHM for I blog on Tuesdays.
Do you know what I realised? We didn't get a photo together! Aaargh. I'm hopeless at remembering, and only whipped my phone out to get a few snaps at the end. It looks like you had a great time in Melbourne. Looking forward to seeing more of you in March x
ReplyDeleteSo glad I got to catch up with you, Amy. The rain was a bit of a pain on Saturday at the zoo too, but we still enjoyed ourselves. Can't wait to hear more about your Melbourne trip! x
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a fabulous time away! Great photos :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great little mini holiday for you and hubby! It sounds like you had a great time together!!!
ReplyDeleteI love Melbourne. We went there on our honeymoon weekend just under two years ago. So awesome, I can't wait to go back and explore some more.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite was the coffee and vegan food on Degraves. I'd go back just for that.
Hi Amy, Where was your fave coffee place in Melbourne??.. So many great places to go.. if you ever come back again.. Id be happy to take you on a coffee tour (thats what my blogs about!!)
ReplyDeleteHope you had a fun time : )
glad you had such a great time here! look forward to hearing more about the brunch! x
ReplyDeleteSounds like you both had fun, it's so nice to get away together. I haven't been to Melbourne in a few years now but it does have great shopping. Hope you have a wonderful day my friend.
ReplyDeleteAlways Wendy
Haven't been to Melbourne for five years, and I don't mind it, but I also don't understand all the fuss. Or maybe it's because my sister spends the whole time raving about it like its the only place on earth! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a wonderful little break; so nice for you both.
I love Melbourne, I want to move there. So much to explore, and so much good food to be eaten and coffee to be drunk!
