I went to the office & asked if they could spread some sand as in the neighbouring sites. Luckily they offered us another site & it was lovely, green grass with a river running behind us.
Thank goodness the rain eased up for the rest of our stay even though it was still too cold to spend too much time outside.
Our first night was a family catch up at the Broadmeadows (Broady) Club with my favourite Uncle Len. He's 85 years old & is as fantastic as ever. It was great to catch up with my cousin Kevin & his wife Cris (who were the original owners of our caravan), my cousin Ian & my other cousins wife Sue & her son Kayne. We don't get to see each other very often but it's always nice when we do.
We went to the Queen Vic markets as I hadn't been in many years. That market could easily be a
After that we hopped on a tram in to Southbank. Melbourne's public transport is awesome. We caught the free 'circle line' tram which dropped us off right next to Southbank. We walked along beside the Yarra & then went back home.
Thanks to Facebook I was contacted by Anna who worked with both Gary & I at Tip Top.
It was such a great night. They made a beautiful Thai Green Curry & I bought a lemon curd tart from the market. All the food was amazing & It was a really great night. We might just take them up on their offer to park our van in their back yard next time! 😜
On the Saturday we went to Uncle Len's house to have lunch with my cousin Lynette & Peter & also Ian & Kevin. Kevin & Ian cooked the barbecue while the rest of us sat inside & chatted. Sue popped in after lunch to say hi too. We finished off with a beautiful sponge cake made by Ian's wife Kerry.
Gary & I had a sleepover at Uncle Len's which is always nice.
Next stop, Albury ...............
