Feb 20th-21st Memorable Melbourne

It has taken me time to approach this blog, there was just so much to admire about Melbourne. It calls itself Sydney's elder and more experienced sister. We were blown away by the pleasurable liveability of it. The well tended gardens and parks, the thought-provoking architecture, the pocket shopping malls that interconnect internally among the city blocks. We loved the variety of Palm trees interspersed with Eucalyptus, Ponderosa Pines, and many disciduous varieties...There are many brasseries along the river Yarra ("flowing" in Aboriginal language)...Southgate, dotted with pedestrain bridges. While we were there the weather changed about every 5 minutes, which was not normal, but despite the misty rain and gusty winds, this city presented itself as the perfect blend of the new(21st century) and old(19th century) worlds. There is a sense of respectful decorum that makes one feel safely welcome.

George and I slipped away to play some golf in Albert Park.....with some "Melbourne Mates"

Note to my "Golf-Girls".....It doesn't get much better than this!!!!
