Just returned from a whirlwind trip to lovely lovely Melbourne with my 13 year old daughter .... so here is a snapshot summary of our adventures ....caught up with
Nikki at Brunswick ...it was great to see her studio and the engine room of her shop ......
Saw the fabulous and amazing and so much fun musical "Hairspray"
Also saw "West Side Story" at the Regent Theatre ....
The
"RockWiz" fans will recognise this place ....
Next stop - Glen Waverley - Frou Frou Fabrics - hmmm - yum!
Now
Haigh's chocolates aren't a Melbourne thing, but since we don't have them in Newcastle, they are worthy of a mention ....
AbbaWorld - for a trip down memory lane - totally amazing - do you remember wishing that YOU were in ABBA? Do you remember these costumes?
And should you need roller skates I can recommend
a great shop ....
There is only so much walking a gal can do - in Brunswick I also purchased fabric at Rathdowne Remnants, but there were many other places on my list (thanks
Sharon for the list!) that remain on my list .... another time maybe??
On another note .... read about our first
Brown Owls meeting here ......

ReplyDeleteWow, you did so many amazing things!! My girls & I loved Abba World, did you download using your ticket? It's a lot of fun. Love the roller skates, how cool. You must be thrilled to have fitted in so many great things into your trip. Have a great week xo
