- Headed off to Dockland for the day, Caught the tram, then off to the O'brien Ice House, arriving around 11 am
- We had unlimited time to skate! So we spent 3.5 hours skating, with a brief lunch break. Ethan did amazing, and we had a lot of fun & exercise. Mostly no falls - other than once each (I fell quite ungracefully when we were racing each other & the rink had become crowded as one of the rinks had shut for re-icing). But no injuries, fortunately.
- Finished up around 3:15 & did some shopping very briefly in Docklands to get Ethan a jumper, then off to Hoyts to see Elemental on the Xtremescreen. I didn't quite make it through the whole movie before falling asleep - but Ethan enjoyed it.
- Then there was the fire festival around the Yarra River in Docklands. This was very crowded, although we got there at the right time as we managed to get food (Large Tacos), Donuts and Coffee very quickly - later, we found that the food stalls had huge cues at them. Interestingly most of the restaurants around the pier have closed down… But there were a lot of food trucks. There were fire pits around, fire towers that went off every 30 min or so, and an impressive laser display overhead.
- After walking around and watching a few performers (fire twirling), we made our way back to our accommodation. Unfortunately, they started major works out the front of Sothern Cross station, so trams coming back from the side of Docklands we ended up on were cancelled - so we had to walk back - again good exercise - ended up doing 22,500 steps for the day. We stopped off at Woollies and got some veggies to offset our meaty diet…

Nanny/Mum Wow what a very full day. It sounds like you both had lots of fun and even more exercise. Good to hear you finally had some veggies.
Jill Shanhun Appreciate hearing about your full fun day. Also pleased to hear you had some vegies. That is an amazing number of steps in a day. Ethan, you are a champion. 🏃️. Glad no injuries Luke! We are having fun house-sitting. Daisy enjoys walks, went to church & out to lunch with friends. Jill/Mum.
