Adventures abroad

What a week! We've been holidaying in Melbourne. We had the fortune to house sit for my parents who are adventuring in far off lands, so we had a lovely base to call home for week while we explored and rediscovered all things Melbourne. So the week began with South Melbourne market and an afternoon with old friends and their new baby. Then preparing all night for Market day...




I had such a lovely day at Mathilda's Market. So many lovely stalls and products out there!! It was really great to chat to people, old friends and new. Thanks for making the effort to go in the pouring rain, for saying hello and for the lovely feedback! I suppose the best thing about a market is getting to chat to people and finding out what they like and why... as opposed to guessing from my loungeroom based on my owlets and their preferences!

So the rest of the week was reserved for Owlet activities..


The aquarium...

The farm...

Morning tea...

The zoo...

We also managed to squeeze in a play with some lovely families and catching up with more old friends. Then home again, breathe and flop! I love wandering, but its so good to be home where the air is clean, the sun is shining and the loudest sound is the hum of the fridge or a bird flying overhead.
