Melbourne cont

Weds 30-3-11 Early risers going to Moaba for an overnight stay in one of Pauls mates sisters unit (bungalow to us). Its a 3 hour drive from Melbourne we called in McDonalds as we had promised Paige we would, then onto the town of Bendigo where we visited the historic pottery, wish I could have brought some home it was all lovely I got roped into having a go on the potters wheel alongside Paige who is somewhat of a expert and I am a complete novice but the potter had a lot of patience and I produced two dishes with lots of help from him. However the latst bowl I made on my own and I am really chuffed with it, it is now being fired and glazed and will beposted to Dawn in acouple of weeks and she will forward it on. Onto Euchar went down to the mighty Murray River to see the grand old paddle steamers in action, now onto Moamba. Its a lovely unit we are staying in, went 9ut and got bread and milk Dawn has bought some food lots of pokie machines etc but we had a delicious inexpensive meal, the place was packed. After a chat over a bottle of wine we retired to bed at 11pm. The bed is comfy and we have a good nights sleep. Thurs 31-3-11 Heading back to Melbourne this morning via Yarrawonga where Dawn andPaul have a holiday timeshare unit, stopping off for a ~subway in Yarrawonga town, Ken fancies a week here so maybe we will come back after all, I sincerely hope so but somehow doubt it. Its a lovely place with plenty to do. Arrive back in Melbourne had a lovely coffee and eclair from bakers around 4pm. Lois aand Mal come over in the evening and we all have fish and chips.
