Melbourne day 1

For our first full day in Melbourne, we had breakfast, before spending the day mainly relaxing in the hotel. Robin has been getting increasingly grumpy with all the activity and traveling, so we wanted to try and give him a break. He tried some rockmelon at breakfast.

For lunch, we met up with a friend of ours, Sarah, who works at NetApp. We had a really nice lunch and a good chat. Robin had a taste of a pickle, and was quite intrigued. In the afternoon, we went to the hotel club and had some tea, and left Robins blanket there! Whoops! Luckily we got it back the next day.

Before we went out for dinner, Robin and I had a bath in the big bath in the hotel suite. It was the first time Robin had been in a full size bath, and he loved it. He certainly is a water baby! He was splashing and laughing and really happy to be in the water with is mum. We can’t wait to be able to start swimming lessons!

Dinner was with another friend of ours from NetApp, Pat. We went to a steak restaurant, where Peter asked Pat to be one of our groomsmen. Dinner was wonderful, and Robin slept through it so we could eat without interruption. We all had a drink afterwards, before heading to bed.
