3/1/2015

Oops I missed a few days but I have good excuses. Friday I worked in Melton which is far far away so I took the fast train and napped on the train. Saturday I missed my alarm and had to catch a cab in again. Ugh! Nothing like spending all of my pay on transport. And Sunday I was far too busy to blog.
My friend Natasha who I know from when we were young and living in the vicinity of Morgantown, and haven't seen I at least 10 years has come to visit. Partially me mostly Melbourne, but I'm happy to be a tour guide. I picked her up at the airport at 8am and we went around all day. I took her to our market where I had the sly motivation of shopping but she also found bagels so it was a win. They we went to the Yarra valley and Healesville sanctuary. I still haven't had any luck seeing the lire birds but I am much better at spotting echidnas and wombats. We tried to stop at a winery for lunch on the way home but with some navigational problems and things closing at 4:30 we ran into a bit of trouble. We did find a massive ice cream and chocolate shop in the middle of nowhere I was astonished at how busy it was 20 minutes before closing. 
We did find a nice Indian place in Yarra glen which was lovely for a snack. We took a break at home for a rest before heading out to dinner and the end of the Chinese New Year dragon. We were hoping for Cambodian but when they were closed we went for laksa king instead.
