This last weekend was not only a 4-day holiday to celebrate Easter, but also my 26th birthday. Having a birthday on Easter has its pros and cons – a lot of people are away for it, but I did have a whole lot of extra time to celebrate!

It’s the Labour Day long weekend here in Melbourne, and for me that means heading to Golden Plains Music Festival. Golden Plains is the younger, smaller sister festival to the Meredith Music Festival which has been running for over 20 years, and is held in December. This was the 7th Golden Plains Festival, and my 5th outing to the 2-night music extravangaza.
I love picnics. Always have, and most likely always will. I think the combination of being outside in the sunshine, eating delicious food and hanging out with friends and loved ones is pretty much perfect.
Yesterday was B’s birthday so we took the day off work and headed to Healesville Sanctuary instead. It was our last stop on our tour of the zoos of Melbourne, and whilst it was scorching hot we still had an excellent time amongst the native animals.
It’s been another flat out week at work, and with the disruption of Offspring filming in our house again I’ve felt a little all over the shop. However I still managed to fit in some relaxing down time, catchups with friends and some delicious food, so it’s definitely not all bad!
