Our first day here was spent sorting glasses out. At least we tried that but with little success. It would take around 14 days to complete the manufacture and we would expect to be back home by then. The chain store SpecSavers didn't appear to be much cheaper than where we had previously got our glasses back home.
As we don't want the 'specials', their prices are no different to most others. We were told the range at our local SpecSavers would be the same as in Melbourne so there was no real advantage to purchasing now!
Some other gift buying and checking out "Specials" at Rivers ensued. I did buy a long sleeve polo top for $8. The way the weather currently is here it will be a good buy. We will spend much of the weekend with the kids and stay at home.
Monday is flat out with a lunch and dinner already booked. Kate and Trish have something planned for Tuesday (Kate may take a 'sickie') and I will be left to my own devices. Kerrie and Ian are due around lunchtime Wednesday and the merry making will begin. An evening meal in Richmond will be the most likely scenario we feel.
We will be taking them around in our Melbourne car. Thursday looks like lunch in Carlton before Ian and I head off to the MCG and Carlton vs Richmond. I have a Balcony Pass and his entry ticket already. Friday looks like St Kilda with the evening with Kim and Dave. We will move to Kim's to stay as of Friday night.
Some chocolate thing is planned for Saturday and later that day we head down to Drouin for the night with Russell and Irene. Sunday morning to Bazz and Rainy's. The afternoon a 'tour' to some wineries before finishing up at either Malaysia Garden or Hoi An.
Monday night is the Tram Car Restaurant while Tuesday will be lunch at which ever restaurant we missed on Sunday Night.We hop on the plane back home first thing Wednesday morning.
