Tonight we went to the winter fireworks downtown. These are held every Friday night. Our views were from a boat called the Lady Cutler. Didn't see much of the fireworks due to the angle of the boat, but the skyline was spectacular!

I went to the Prahran Market today. It's a couple of miles from home. I am really going to miss these markets back in the US. You can find absolutely anything at these places. I love the assortment of dips! Yum!

Melbourne is the coffee capital of the world. I've gotten very used to stopping for a coffee at one of the thousands of outdoor cafes during my time here. I am feeling a self proclaimed coffee snobbery coming over myself and don't think our Keurig, or drip machine in the US is going to cut it anymore. For that reason, I attended a barista class in the city. Let me tell you, it is a science frothing (texturizing) the milk at the correct temperature. We'll be purchasing an espresso machine upon our return. A much smaller version of this commercial one, of course.

A cloudy walk with Sampson this morning, but the scenery is still beautiful!

I made a solo trip downtown to the National Gallery Victoria to view Aboriginal art before our upcoming Uluru trip.
In another part of the gallery I loved this cat sculpture.
And what trip downtown wouldn't be complete without a cappuccino?
August 28, 2016I guess you CAN teach an old dog new tricks. I attended an indigenous basketry class. Still have some finishing to do.
That's it for now. Next stop......Uluru
Stay tuned and G'Day!
