Current location: Brunswick, Melbourne
11.11am, Having brunch. It seems only right that we are in Melbourne having brunch, as the city seems to have the meal nailed. There are so many places offering brunch, so many dishes to choose from, and sooooo many happy taste buds when brunch has been eaten! Seriously, Melbourne does good brunch. We had gone to a little place called Milkwood (do the taste buds a favour and go there!), eating pancakes and drinking coffee with Sus and our friend Liffy. Amazing times with amazing people, as seems to be our way with holidays!
After a long, leisurely brunch, Sus, Andy and I headed into the city for a bit of an explore. I know we came here when I was 11, but I don't remember it, so it all felt new and exciting. We had a sit in Federation Square, where there was a unicycling juggler, then had a wander and a beer on the river. It was beautifully hot and sunny today so for the rest of the afternoon, we went between ducking into shops and down the lane ways to sitting on rooftops and drinking Pimm's. We had a fun evening planned, but managed to squeeze in a cheeky nap to recharge our batteries first.
Not long later, we were dressed up and ready to head back into the city to meet our friends Fran, Em and Rick, at a bar called Happy Palace. It was pretty cool, with jellyfish in the tables and bikes to sit on (pretty 'Melbourne' I'm told!) and then we moved onto a dark and stormy bar called Boney. Everyone was on such good form, and it was nice to be reunited with such lovely people, and I barely stopped laughing all night. One more bar (which may or may not have been called Table Top Gold) and many more laughs, and we got the tram back to Brunswick for bed.
