The weather the last few days has been so great- as you can tell from the photos. Have been back in Australia for a few days now and am loving it. Continuously questioning myself on why I am returning to the UK after only 2 weeks here. Mum and I caught the train into Melbourne and walked along St Kilda Rd for a little bit and then we caught the train to Williamstown. Mum wanted to show me her old high school and to see how the area has changed since.
We wandered around along the beach and found her old school. After a yummy lunch out in the sun, we caught a boat back to Southbank, along the Yarra. It was then time for a bit of window shopping and then we had to go home to cook dinner for dad!
