A day being "auntie"

I chose not to embarrass them by taking a photo under the clocks
 The thing about going to the Aquarium in the school holidays is to go early in the morning. I guess getting a carload of little kids out the door early in the morning is tricky.
Not having to do that and having arranged to meet Nick and Kate "under the clocks" at Flinders Street station (gosh they have grown into two lovely young people- grown from two lovely little kids), we beat the crowd.
The walk through the Aquarium was lovely seeing all those amazing creatures and chatting with the lovely Nick and Kate


On exiting the building the queue was stretching on forever and we were so thankful that we had got out there early. A walk through the grey old day to South gate and lunch and more chattting.
We finally settled on going to a movie and got into "Spiderman" which i think we all enjoyed.
I made sure Nick and Kate were safely on the Frankston line train to Carrum and then made my way to have a lovely latte at Young and Jackson's cafe section. Great view of the station and the passing parade.
The tram ride during peak hour made for further interesting crowd watching as commuters went about the process of getting home after work and struggled to stay awake. A walk through the streets of Richmond to Wendy's house and a lovely dinner and evening with friends.
