Tash is up from Cowaramup to prepare the flowers for Todd's cousin's wedding. Sarah the bride wanted white only flowers...they all look so beautiful as does my darling daughter....




Gorgeous aren't they....


This is a fantastic mural in the Coles carpark in Vasse, a small town near Cowaramup...Pete and I were on our way to Tash and Todd's as we will be minding the little boys while Tash and Todd are at the wedding in Perth.


The boys....having dinner and drawing....so nice to see the Stokes....


I missed bookclub this evening....this was the book that was discussed...an absolutely fabulous read by one of my favourite authors Geraldine Brooks...

A very interesting puzzle...I learnt quite a lot about Dali and his fellow artists from the back of the box that the pieces were in. Glenda said she thought I would like this one.

Monty having fun with a Woolies paper bag while Pete and I pack our cases ....


On our last day in Melbourne I wanted to see the Marina Tower in Docklands ....I have been calling it the crooked buildings ....we have seen it from afar but not up close. We caught the train to North Melbourne and walked to Docklands...interesting inner city walk.


This photo was taken from the Melbourne City marina....



The Marina Tower...There is a 43 story inclined tower and a 36 story inclined tower that are conjoined to the 21st floor and then diverge at 5 degree angles. It is mostly comprised of apartments but it also includes a seven story four Points by Sheraton Hotel.



An interesting sculpture "Meeting" ...one of many in Docklands...


While looking for a nice coffee shop we stumbled across this absolutely fabulous second hand book shop...I could have stayed there all day ...we will return next trip.


On our way to Southern Cross Station ...a good view of the marina and the Marina Tower.



The NAB building..


Another interesting building...the Premier Tower... Pete and I really enjoyed the day, so much to see in Melbourne City ...we said  goodbye to Chris and Michelle and thanked them for a relaxing short holiday...had a nice quiet time in the Qantas Lounge before we flew home.
