Two cities and Village People

I went to Melbourne a cuppla weeks ago for work.  I had some spare time and sat at South Bank in the sunshine.  And I remembered I have a very nice unit in Bellerive.  And Bellerive has a lovely marina.  Smaller yachts and buildings.  How lucky I am.

I also saw this restaurant decorated with bicycles... presumably you can hire them.  Bit hard to read in this photo but  the pink bikes have Venus on them and the orange ones, Mars.

Last weekend I went to Adelaide for Mum's birthday.

I love North Terrace - it is very civil and civic as envisioned by Colonel Light.
Mum and I met Helly, Tamasin and Willowa at the museum to see an art exhibition (there really is no escaping them).  David's work 'Flat-screen Icon' is a Finalist in the Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize 2013 and will be going to Canberra.  It is a very beautiful exhibition and included a fish sculpted out of salt taken from the Murray River.

Then we had a picnic at Mum's

 with soulful renditions of Village People songs including Go West.
A very happy birthday.
