Yeah - we are staying just around the corner from it , I said to Shahni when we saw the building "it might have been an asylum once upon a time" and I wasn't far wrong - it was a Sanitarium

Yes indeed - the traffic in Melbourne is no fun at all

Then off to a gin distillery- didn’t know there was a dirt section on the way- this seems to happen to us every year



Had a bit of a scare when we got back onto the bitumen, the ute was making a horrible scraping noise, I thought it was the front left brake but when I jacked it up and gave it a spin it sounded fine - turned out there was a big stick jammed underneath and it was dragging on the road - had to stop at a pub on the way back to settle me nerves one thing I noticed was the front brakes were hot , the left rear was warm and the right rear was stone cold , when I get to my mates in Stratford I plan on doing an oil change and will have a look at the brakes as well

Off to a winery then the penguin parade with 4 million Chinese tourists and 3 million Indian tourists- they certainly know how to charge in this place - $14 for a snag in a bun !!
