Australia is Yellow



When traveling across the western plains of Melbourne you begin to realise that it not brown, at this time of year, it's Yellow.
The field are large and all flowering.

Birds at play




While on my trip to the Grampians National Park, i stopped for lunch.
And these birds joined me.

The Wind Farm




On the road to the Grampians National Park I passed a Wind farm.
I went off the main road to get some pictures of them closer.

To me they were an asset to the landscape, I New Zealand, they object to them because of the way they look.
What a lot of rubbish. these wind mills look fantastic to look at.

OH well. I hope to a lot more of them in the future.

Grampians National Park





The Grampians National Park is a park about 3 hours drive to the west of Melbourne.
I went on a road trip to go and see, all of the family were working or regarded the 6hour driving as too far.

The ranges are a beautiful set of mountains. coming straight out of the plains. They just seems to rise out strong and majestic.
The Grampians National Park is mostly a rockery area. The only think that does well there is the wildlife and great views and vista's. It was also a great drive as I miss the country side a lot.

It was well worth the visit, but is best done at this time of year when the place has some greenery.

Dali the artist




The National Gallery of Victoria currently is running an exhibition for called Dali.
Jennifer and I went for an evening Date.

Dali is one of the great artists, It was a very interesting exhibition for a strange man that had talent.
Jennifer favourite was the painting of the bubble girl.
Mine was the anatomy of the swan

Lee's Asian Grocery



This is my favorite store in the Prahran Market, It is where I can get all the things that I remember about from Malaysia.
If they don't have something like the Fried Onion pieces , they will let me know where I can get them locally.

They now have them in the little stall. They have had the stall since 1952 so they have been around a while.

Prahran Market Fruit and Vegetables




This is where the Market is at it's best. The stuff here is at the price like the rest of town. And because it's close to home we can get what we need quickly.

I enjoy talking the guy in the stalls, and I have been given some great tips over time.
