Today is Melbourne Cup day, something I have wanted to be in Melbourne for for a long time. We are not actually going to the races, but I think we will head down to Federation square to soak up the atmosphere and place a couple of bets. Traditionally, when big sporting events are on Federation square is the place to be. They have what is called a live site, with a huge big screen and a big area for a crowd to gather and watch. Federation square is quite new to Melbourne, in a Archaeological sense, and I think people are just now starting to make good use of it. It's a pretty great facility, kind of sums up Melbourne though with lots of great things to do and places to see and eat.
We are starting to get a bit more settled into our house now, and apparently fingers crossed our stuff from New Zealand will arrive on Thursday.
Asia has terraformed our outdoor area and we now have a very cool vege and herb garden. We should be able to sample the produce sometime around December...
