Melbourne Trip 27th Feb - 3rd March

Recently I went down to Melbourne with the family for relaxation time! It was very relaxing, so relaxing in fact that we didn't do that much shopping while we were there! Sad for me, but that meant I had to get creative with what i had brought with me. It wasn't a lot, but I think I did alright.

I went to my friend Rhian's 18th Birthday Party! This was the morning after when I took over her trampoline in high hells (not reccomended)

This was the same day where I had to fill the car up!

This light bulb was awesome. The whole family went to look at some open houses that were for sale and all were immaculate!

This was my favourite entrance out of all the houses! This is what I want for a house of my own!


As we went garage sale-ing round the neighbourhood, I saw this beautiful gem! All I know about it is that it's a Chevrolet, it looks cool and it's for sale! Did't buy it though, I want a Toyota!

The one day the family spent in Melbourne we took a peek around China Town!

I yelled at people and things

And saw a very interesting advertising campaign

Here is another funky old school car! I wonder if it was hydrolics...hmm...

I needed a drink bad so we went to a 50's retro themed Hungry Jacks! I loved all the pics of Elvis and Marilyn covering the walls

Down at the Portsea Hotel, I saw this very attractive French man

Down in Sorrento, we came across this intresting, woodworks gallery. I forgo what the name was but I did love the vaious mirrors they had! They were tiny, small, average and...

...BIG!

I love big mirrors! And What girl doesn't love them?

My nanai was very excited about all of the fresh fruit and vagetables available to her! My sister and I suddenly became the official bag-carriers of the day!

We went to the Mornington markets on the Wednesday and I spotted this hammock! Very stylish and I think every household should have one! They're so relaxing!

I peed into a little cafe and saw this quaint European-inspired presentation for a Cafe name! Uno uno cinque (one one five)

This cafe looked so European! I loved all the attention to detail! The different couch colors, mirrors everywhere, the wallpaper and the French-styles paintings with matching frames! The bar stooles looked like they came out of a 1930's movie, the chalk boards and glasses behind the bar!

We went to, hee you guessed it Arthurs Seat and explored round that area of the Mornington Peninsula! We went to the Enchanted Maze garden up there!

We went through mazes (for 30 min!)

And explored the green gardens!

We also stopped into the Montalto vineyard and olive groove. I saw this hedge and thought it looked like a butterfly, but i'm not sure. Can you figure out what this is?

I told the whole family that we had to stop in to the Mornington Peninsula Chocolates store! And I think it was worthwhile coming in and seeing this fabulous chandelir

And trying some of their delicate chocolates! YUM!
