HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN - Hope its a good year for you!
 |
| Nick and Rob |
Found our way to Nick's in Collingwood after a yummy lunch with Elaine, Geoff and Ilyas (ex RAR) on the way in.
 |
| Anne Ilona, Rob and Drew |
Had a few nights "dining out", got to know the neighbourhood of Collingwood and the City. Melbourne is pretty easy to get around (good transport).
We also got to have breakfast with our friend Grace and caught up Ilona and Drew (Rob used to play in a band with Ilona) - had a lovely time with them.
 |
| City Square |
We enjoyed exploring the city and had a good look around the National Art Gallery - particularly enjoyed "Unnerved" The New Zealand Project - some very thought provoking works. Explored the music shops and to Robs delight finally found the Leonard Cohen song/chord book he had been wanting for some time.
 |
| China Town |
We became addicted to "Arrested Development", a pretty wacky TV Show and just enjoyed lazing around Nick's place. Collingwood is one of those neighbourhoods "in transition" - still some of the old tenants, businesses etc but slowly turning into a "trendy" location, restaurants, cafes and expensive "fashionable" clothes.

| Boarding the Spirit of Tasmania |
Left on Sunday night (9pm) for the Spirit of Tasmania ferry, which was a real buzz had a very nice night crossing the Bass Strait arriving in Devonport after a comfy nights sleep in our sleeper.
