| Drew here with his Nana
who is well into her 90's. She is kindly letting Caroline and Drew stay
in her house until they get a place of their own. |
 |
Caroline with her mum who, like me, was fighting jet
lag. |

|
Oh yes, and I got a ride in a Ferrari.
Lots of firsts on Day 2! |
 |
Me, Diesel the dog and Caroline.
I don't normally 'do' dogs but Diesel was quite easy to
cope with. |
 |
 |
We also met Jamie, seen here wearing his ancestral
colours. The three of them were off to a wedding. |
 |
another day and we were taken to a Sunday morning
market somewhere the other side of the city. |
|
Some random people snaps. |
 |
 |
I
guess this was a tree which had the dual purpose of being a telegraph
pole. |
 |
I did quite a bit of cycling whilst resident at Box
Hill; the bike/pedestrian paths were amazing: quite the best urban
cycling I have ever experienced. I was, however, quite
disappointed not to see a single snake in our entire holiday. |

All these shots taken from the trail. there are many
Kilometres of these all linking up to other trails. Fab! |
|
Room for a few shots of some transport of various
kinds seen in town. |

 |
Here on the right, the bike trail takes me some 20K's
towards the city centre past the river Yarra, Melbourne's main outlet to
the sea. |

| We had an excellent outing to Healesville:
a Wild life Sanctuary, about an hours drive north of
Melbourne. |
