It's just one hour since my last post, but I decided to get a couple photos posted of our daily life. We do love to walk up and down Church Street to people watch, peek into the stores to see the goods, and to sit at an outdoor cafe. Joe's been drinking a lot of hot chocolate here. While we were sitting at a cafe this morning with our paper and hot beverages, we struck up a conversation with a woman and her dog, Charlie (I guess he really didn't contribute much to the conversation). She was very friendly and talked about how much she loved living for a time in the US. She thinks people here are getting too snobbish and feels they give her quite the looks if she walks around the village in the scuzzy outfits she wears on her long walks. She likes the vibe in small American towns better. I told her she'd love Bloomington.
Our paper came with a Michael Buble Christmas CD. We've got it playing now, and I tell you, it's strange to listen to this kind of music when I'm in shorts and sunblock. After breakfast we're renting bikes in the CBD and going along the Yarra River. No rain in today's forecast for which we, and all the poor farmers, are quite happy about.
