Around Town

January 31, 2016



We attended the 21st annual Pride March.  The route ran past the end of our block.  A very different experience.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
These guys walk better in their heels than I do.

On our morning walk, Sampson and I saw a very large cruise liner at dock.  The Golden Princess.
 
 
Later that day, Torsten and I had a wonderful meal on Acland Street in St. Kilda and a leisurely walk home.  These 2 pictures are my viewpoint from my outdoor seat.

Our walk back home.  Here's Luna Park Amusement Park and the Palais Theater.

Meanwhile back at Harbor Chase Assisted Living in Florida, Janell, the activities director got Dad up and dancing.  I love these pictures!

We tried our hand at lawn bowling.  No pictures, but here I am getting primed.  Bowling was not a pretty sight.
 
 
 
I got a kick out of this Facebook posting!

I bought a Groupon for a 3 hour sailing adventure with my Valentine.  It was great and the weather couldn't have been better!

The annual St. Kilda Festival.  Ten music stages.  And two old farts.

We went to a free outdoor concert series at the Sydney Meyer Music Bowl for some classical culture.  Hmmm.
 
Afterward we went to the much anticipated White Night, an annual night in downtown Melbourne where the city is lit up (and they say open) all night.  Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed by the light projections and overwhelmed by the crowds.  Got a few nice pictures though.

A beautiful Sunday morning walk to the end of St. Kilda Pier and brekkie at Little Blue Café.  Even saw a couple of penguins on the way.





Such unusual and tasty brekkies here down under.

 
 
G'day Mates!
