Our Vietnamese meal on Thursday in Springvale was great as usual. Needless to say we ate too much but Gee it was nice food. As we left the restaurant around 8:30 the weather was absolutely bitter, even the locals were complaining about the cold weather.
Earlier in the day we had a good look around as usual. It is just like stepping into a city in Asia when you visit this place, only a heck of a lot cooler!
On Friday I got to the MCG and saw my team have a win. Again it was a come from behind victory. They played poorly in the first half but much improved in the second. The first half was not good for my stress level! The game began at 7:50pm and I wasn't home until just before midnight. It makes for a long day . Forecast rain did not eventuate.
On Saturday evening we caught up with good friends June and Keith. Russell and Irene traveled down from Drouin to join us and we all had a great time catching up and having probably too many drinks.But it was all great fun reliving times together over the last 30 years or so.
The ladies in particular had a great time. There was laughter aplenty and the night was enjoyed by all. Getting home again around midnight was a trial. I am not moving at 100% this morning Sunday as I type.
Today we head to Kim's in St Kilda where we will stay a couple of nights. Chris, Wendy, Andrew and Emily are visiting as well. This is our only chance to catch up with them this trip down. As I have said before, Wendy's mum and Dad are with them at the moment, she is recuperating from surgery.
There is a chance I will catch up with my brother tomorrow.
The weather is a little milder today so it should be OK. However the forecast of high 20's back at home makes returning there Tuesday morning fairly attractive.
