Melbourne June 2010


Catching up with old friends while in transit at Singapore.









Steven and Pauline's apartment at La Trobe St we stayed in the first night. Was so tired since arriving in Melbourne very early morning and started walking and venturing through out the day. Anyway we had a good dinner at a chinese restaurant in the city.



The Royal Botanical Garden, Shrine of Remembrance commerating memories of soldiers who have fought in the war to protect Australia.









Alf's home at Benalla with a big nice and warm fire place.







Walking and surveying the farm, enjoying the fresh and cool air, also admiring the parrots that help themselves to the persimmon fruits of the tree.









Dinner at the chinese restaurant in Benalla to celebrate Alf's 80th birthday.












Apple farm along the way home to Melbourne city from Benalla, they sell nice fresh juices too. Also saw some nice cactus along the road.

Tiffany kindly brought us to Mt Dandenong, enjoyed the lunch and scones.




Meeting up Jonathan and Sharon, we stayed with them for a few nights. Sharon makes beautiful cake.







National Art Gallery.
