Were Back In Brisbane

Well we touched down in Brisbane Wednesday night at about 8.25pm (brisbane time,) Pamela, Felicity and Helena were there to meet us ( Huge Thankyou!) Our baggage had grown to twice the amount we left brisbane with, but that is to be expected when on holidays, So now that I have got the photos on the computer I can post them on the blog!

Sunday the 9th March Jason and Michael went to the Motor show where jason got to sit in a Hummer!

On Monday we checked out Melbourne city and DFO, as it was our 1st wedding anniversary so we stayed the night in the Mecure hotel on spring st. We had a fantastic dinner at "The Steakhouse" Pier 35 Port Melbourne, we were able to choose the cut & grade of steak and how it was cooked the sides and sauces it was served with, Just the best food we have ever had!

Were on Holidays!

Hi all how are you?
Jason and I are currently in Melbourne having a lovely time . We have been doing a lot of site seeing and tourist type things while in Melbourne. The highlights so far are obviously seeing Michael, Kylie and Oliver, but we also went to Brighton Beach where the "Bathing sheds" are located. I was so excited i took so many photos its not funny! I have always wanted to see the Colourful Iconic bathing sheeds but never knew where they were. we have also been to the Melbourne Zoo and out to visit auntie Merle in Cranbourne. Jason and I met up with a friend of mine "Shanal" at the Crown Casino on Friday for a fantastic dinner at the "Pub".Today we are off to the Queen Victoria Markets and maybe the Melbourne Goal if there is time. (good thing the Goal is not operational they may not have let us back out) we are also planning to go to the Ballarat gold mine and historical village tomorrow on the V-line Train. we will be back in Brisbane on Wednesday evening bringing with us alot more baggage than we left with. We will be travelling home with Michael Kylie and Oliver. Lots and lots of love Trudie-lea
