Well , back in Melbourne again and staright back into it! Starting with a 2 week language learning course. Am hoping my "rainman" tendencies begin to kick in to help me learn. Surely there has to be some better use for them than learning peoples number plates..or mathematical pi to 9 digital places....yes,sad but true! Anyway, good to be back! Mum and Dad came as far as 2 hours from Sydney to have breakfast with us, but it definitely wasn't at McDonalds because Dad would never be seen eating there...so let's call it "McRogers". Anyway we enjoyed sitting in our cosy booth with a hot drink on a cold and overcast morning before facing the next 8 hours in the "torture contraption" that Soph so fondly refers to as our car.
We are also aware that our time down in Melbourne is more than half over, so we wanted to get out and see some sights while we can! First stop was "Artplay" which we had to have booked for, so we thought we'd find a nice park...which the kids were too hot to play in! Ah well, things started looking up when we found some sushi for lunch and "Pancake Parlour" for dinner. Can't win 'em all!!
