Easter
Its almost Easter , the kids are on holiday and Melbourne is enjoying some of its most beautiful Autumn weather . Footys back with record crowds at all games .The task of how to occupy bored children looms large for Munters everywhere.
alternative to an egg
Easter is a time of religious significance for many and is celebrated within families around the country.
Chocolate eggs of all sizes and rabbits , bilbies , ducks etc abound in the shops. From my experience it is best to buy from reputable , big manufacturers who have the name in excellence for chocolate production. In todays market the quality item is not that much more expensive than the cheap inferior items on offer . After all you don’t want to disappoint young and old alike on Easter Sunday when they discover they have been given an inedible chocolate egg!
For many Easter is the last chance to spend some outdoor family recreational pursuits such as camping before the days shorten and cool down and the weather becomes more unpredictable.Enjoy being in the great outdoors while you can as the glorious weather won’ t last.
All the leaves are falling
All the leaves are falling and its another beautiful Autumn day , must be Melbourne dreamin’ along its merry way . Apologies to the beach boys but the glorious weather produces a variety of typically autumn Melbourne activities . Observed in my local suburb whilst en route to the NGV were an auction , a garage sale and a wedding . All three could be occurring in any city at any time but they are particularly popular in Melbourne in autumn on a Saturday afternoon . Autumn weather is most reliable for producing warm , sunny ,wind free afternoons that are perfect for all three activities.
Charlies autumn clothes
With the autumn weather comes the commencement of another great Melbourne activity , the footy season . Whether its your local junior amateur side or the AFL competition it begins this weekend . The sherrin will be bounced on Thursday night at the MCG for the first time in 2010 with all the other games including including amateur afl leagues to follow. Dust off the scarf , pull the jumper , jersey , guernsey from storage and get barracking . Ah I can almost smell the aroma of the 4 and 20 pie and sauce now and hear the roar of the crowd as the Saints kick another goal . Melbourne in Autumn , its a winner .
