Time out

Just a quick update as I know one lady who will be looking for a blog posting everyday this weekend. Yesterday I caught the Overland train at Bordertown and travelled to Melbourne. It is a great way to go, no traffic to worry about, and plenty of room and a cafe to get coffee on board. Then my chauffer (DD3) picked me up at my journey's end. It was interesting to see the changing countryside along the way. In some areas the crops are almost ready to be harvested, and further south things are still very green and lots of water in the paddocks. (I must still have a bit of farmer blood in me!)




 The industrial part of Geelong.


And you know you are in Melbourne when you see this wheel. (I have been calling it the wheel for so long, but DD3 informs me that it is the Melbourne Star!)


Today we are going to AQM (Australian Quilt Market), which is a trade show for the industry, and then we have a couple more days until I head back home on the train Tuesday. I think there is a special treat organised for me Sunday, so will report about that later.
Enjoy your weekend,

Blessings, From Jude

It was good being able to say hello today, although brief & meeting DD3. Having caught up with Rick, I then talked to Zoe Clifton & Michelle Marvig,(both who remembered me) so all in all I had a great day. I couldn't believe how much I loved this time too, and maybe have some of that mojo back. Take care & keep cool Monday. (38 predicted for Melbourne).
