Travelog for: Dottie Mouse

Hey Mum,

Today we went to work and helped with some cutting and pasting!! 


Then after work we had a fun thing to do - we had a go at glass slumping! We stuck two pieces of glass together (after we had cleaned it) and then decorated on top.





Was a good day Mum. 

Love and hugs

Hi Mum,

We had a look in the city for Christmas decorations today

Flinders Street Station looks good

crossing over the Yarra river

an interesting mosaic on South Bank

this is me in the dark looking at the decorations in the casino


back out by the Yarra and the tour boats

we had a sit by the Yarra and watched the rowers and looked over at the city buildings



at Federation Square we found a forest of Christmas trees

in Federation Square with St Pauls Cathedral in the background

the main entrance of Flinders Street station over the road

Hey Mum,
Today we went into Geelong, Sue had to do some messages and on the way home we stopped at the Botanic Gardens to show you the bollards there - the bollards are around the beach at Geelong and tell the history of the area.

This is the man who established the Botanic Garden here back in the 1800's

this lady had picked a flower  to put in her flower press and was hiding it behind her back!

we found this unusual plant in the gardens.

Love and hugs
