I took this photo on Friday morning while I was enjoying some 'me time' at Chapel St. I really love 'me time'.
I visited my favourite cafe/bakery and indulged in a coffee and almond croissant. Then wondered along the street looking in windows, taking photos and visiting op shops.
At one point I noticed the sound of a car flooring it in some far off street. Then I noticed another almost immediately after and then it dawned on me that the Grand Prix was well and truly underway for the day. The sound of those F1's, screaming around the circuit, sure do bounce off the buildings. It added a certain atmosphere to this most interesting of streets.
Ya'll know I love the graffiti art, but this one is just too hard to crop to make it good enough to put up on
Teacups and Graffiti.
Another fun thing I did last week was meet a good friend and her daughter for a picnic at a park that I neither of us had been to before.
It's such a pretty park and has an awesome, fenced playground.
That's one of the many things I love about Melbourne. There are so many great playgrounds and parks.
Of course, Monkey was non stop the whole time we were there. That kid has too much energy.
I love that about him though!
He LOVED the flying fox. He spent a lot of time walking it back to the start, then climbing on and flying to the end. Over and over and over and over again.
This swing got quite a workout too. He and Miss T had fun on it together. He's even showing off to her in this photo and trying to make her laugh by pulling silly faces.
Moving on to the weekend.
Angel's school had a Funday Sunday. And it was fun. Honestly, I don't think anything gives me so much joy as watching my kids have fun.
She had a go at everything. Even the Cha Cha Cha ride...twice!
He loved the go carts. He thought they were the bees knees, even though they didn't go very fast.
He went on them maybe 4 or 5 times.
Of course, the Giant Slide got a good workout from these two as well.
Talk about wearing the kids out.
This made me giggle. This Vespa belongs to a friend of ours who spent a good part of the day giving the kids rides, along with another bloke who was giving rides on his Harley D.
Angel went on the Vespa with Chris, but Monkey wouldn't, until Dad said he'd take him for a ride. Of course he would go with his Dad! He idolises him.
They ended up going twice!
The chicky babe with the pink hair is another good friend of ours. She is who I went to the Michael Buble concert with. Anyway, Monkey loves her and she loves Monkey.
Her hair isn't always that colour. It was part of the fun in raising money for the school.
Can you tell these two are related???
They both make my heart beat faster!
