A lovely old building (built 1911) on Smith Street , Collingwood....Pete and I went for a short walk before meeting Jeremy for brunch....


....at "South of Johnston " restaurant....


Quirky decor, great service and fabulous food...


....the best coffee...


...great to see Jeremy....and spend a few hours catching up on the news about his new job at Rio Tinto...



Driving through the city on our way to Newport, to Chris and Michelle's home...I am quite attracted to the large number of eye catching tall buildings....


While Chris and Michelle were still at work, Pete and I took Monty for a walk down at Seaholme by the water...


....surprised to see so many black swans...


...overcast but no rain...and no cold wind...




He is looking at that chicken..


Chris cooked a delicious dinner...


I can't remember him ever having such long hair ...I like it. We had a really enjoyable evening with him and Michelle.
