I didn't feel much like doing anything when we got home from Melbourne yesterday so I've managed to go through the photos today and have selected some for you to look at.
The trip south started a little damp but the weather cleared by the time we got to Melbourne.
We met a couple of soapie (Home and Away) stars while down there. I didn't know who they were because I don't watch the show, but Sue is an avid watcher.
We went a watched a basketball game (WNBL Dandenong v Canberra) on the saturday night. It was a good game to watch but we weren't pleased with the result as Dandenong won.
And on to Puffing Billy.

| Some information on the train |
|
 |
| The train winds through the hills and crosses the road several times |
 |
| One of the stations along the way |
 |
| This is one of two bridges that you can actually get a photo of from the train |
 |
| Very picturesque country |
 |
| I think there's a creek down there |
 |
| The engine that pulled us from Belgrave to Gembrook |
 |
| Hamburgers for lunch cooked by me |
 |
| Ready for the return trip |
 |
| Potatoes |
 |
| The last bridge before Belgrave |
We also saw some yarn on the hoof but the picture didn't come our real well.
The return trip was quite uneventful but tiring and now we're trying to see if we can get down to my father's place for a family get together as one of my sisters is traveling all the way from Midura. My other sister lives quite close to dad so I expect she'll make the effort.
See you tomorrow for WIP Wednesday.
Richard.
Looks like lots of fun on Puffing Billy, lots of great scenery too.
