We are staying with my son in Melbourne. We walked the city several times and enjoyed the diversity of architecture, people, and good food. It is really strange to see Christmas in the southern hemisphere. People in Melbourne love their coffee and baristas are everywhere. If you are thinking of visiting the city, do it!!

I’ve enclosed a short slideshow of a couple of shots in the city and several south of the city in wine country. We enjoyed wine tasting at three great wineries. The trip was organized by my son’s girlfriends parents and they did a great job as tour guides. Lots of fun. One of the shots shows a closeup of a “Morton Bay Bug”, a lobster type animal that is tasty. Other shots show some wine tasting with family and friends. Jill could not resist running around the winery while video Skyping her sister; a beautiful place.
