Melbourne 2008

February saw us head off to Melbourne for the first time since we purchased our home.

It seemed to be a fairly popular time for star-spotting as well. Firstly, Marcia Hines queue-jumped in front of us in the x-ray and security screening at the airport. Secondly, also at the airport, we saw Alexander Downer (or an incredible look-a-like) yelling to his wife that he'd found their mobile phones. We also saw Paul Capsis in St. Kilda. And our our way home we spotted Harbhajan Singh from the Indian Cricket Team at Melbourne Airport.

The first part of the trip to Melbourne was primarily filled volleyball games (the main reason for our trip). The second half was a nice little holiday for T and I.

Volleyball was fun and very tiring. My whole team was broken by the end of it. For our efforts we came in 2nd in our grade. Hooray.

T and I stayed in St Kilda after my team went home, and we managed to spot a few "Little Penguins" (apparently the name changed from "Fairy Penguins" as the name wasn't politically correct).
