Last weekend I went out to Monbulk and stayed with my friend Lizzie. I had a wonderful time relaxing in the hills, watching movies, going for walks, talking to birds, and playing robots with her son.
Lizzie's property was very green, with a lush garden full of beautiful plants and colourful flowers.
On Friday evening, Lucius and I had a great time playing robots together and working on a dinosaur puzzle. Then he was off to bed and the grown-ups had dinner and watched a movie.

Saturday afternoon Lizzie and I drove down to some of the neighbouring towns and had the most devine vanilla slice in Victoria at Cooks Corner Cafe in Kallista. It was amazing! Afterwards, since the rain had stopped, we decided to go on the Lyrebird walk, which goes through the beautiful forest and ends up at a bird sanctuary...though we didn't see any lyre birds.



The birds were great! We didn't buy any seed, but they still came up and checked us out. I picked up some of the seeds on the ground and managed to get a couple of cockatoos to come over and eat from my hand...which then resulted in them chewing on my fingers.




The rest of the weekend we spent lounging around at Lizzie's place, watching movies, cooking and chatting. On Sunday we had a wonder around the property, which is on a hill. Lucius came with us and was our adverturous protector.
We had to leave quite early (for me) on Monday morning to get Lucius to school and Andrew to work. I shocked a view people at uni when I showed up before 10am. But, before I said goodbye to Monbulk, I had breakfast with a king parrot.




There's been a lot of rain out in Monbulk lately, and as we drove up to Lizzie's house, we spotted a beautiful rainbow.
