Melbourne Mania

So once I found out I had my new job I decided to treat myself to a holiday in Melbourne. It was the first holiday I've had since going to the UK last year. I found myself some accommodation on lastminute.com and away I went.

I spend the first 2 days shopping but was pretty disappointed with it. Alot of stuff I could have got in Brisbane so only managed to get 3 tops but I couldn't go all the way down there and not get anything!

I caught up with my aunt and grandmother and Andy and Lu and finally got to meet baby Harrison which was lovely. He took a shine to me and gave me lots of big smiles but then again he's only human!

The highlight of the trip was my day to the Yarra Valley. The only downside was it was 37 degrees and very smokey from all the bush fires down there but I had a ball. 30 tastings of wine plus a glass at lunch and the day finished off with a champers at Moet and Chandon meant a fabulous day was had!




First stop - chardonnay!

The perfect place to be!

Moet and Chandon and yes, you pronouce the t!
