• Quick weekend in Melbourne

    May 27, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    Hence with Romana to Melbourne a weekend to spend
    Watching ‘The Cursed Child’ before it’s season does end.
    Then the museum to see some Fantastic Beasts
    Followed by a favourite, delicious ‘Chin Chin’ feast.

    Woke with a start when the bed did strongly shake
    Discovering in the morning we’d had an earthquake!
    A Mother’s Day treat of an indulgent pedicure
    Love making memories together, that’s for sure.

    The homeowner’s returned ready for a new start
    Time to pack up our trusty Ute preparing to depart,
    Navigating the Bruce H’way with familiar signage
    Saddened to see an increase in roadkill carnage.

    Watching for bowser deals to ease fuel cost pain
    Impeded by numerous roadworks & incessant rain.
    A steady three days drive south, back to Brissie
    We’ve lots of appointments that’ll keep us busy.

    Romana’s spare room’s taken to pay increased rent
    Thankful for dear friends in whose home we spent
    Time sorting our stuff into one case, nothing more
    Ready to board our flight to Austria via Singapore.
