Wood fired pizza

We had pizza outside last night, it was cold out there, but lovely and warm next to the pizza oven.  Jack and Josie then had toasted marshmallows for dessert!

Magic Mountain

Jack, Jo and I spent the morning at Magic Mountain - no queues, great morning.  They definitely had a good time!

Melbourne

We just had a great city break in Melbourne, staying centrally in a great apartment in Southbank.  

We went to Sealife Aquarium, wandered around the lanes in search of a good cafe, went out to the Docklands and rode on the Melbourne Star, Jack and Josie played glow-in-the-dark golf, went to ArtVo (an interactive art exhibition), dinner at a Japanese restaurant in Chinatown, did an African safari at Werribee Open Range Zoo, movies at the Crown Casino, Melbourne Museum, shopping, checked out Federation Square, rode the free trams about, and went to a Freo Dockers game at Etihad Stadium.  We also caught up with Tons, Mark and the girls a few times and Fiona for a drink in Southbank.   A busy and very enjoyable few days!
