...we feasted our eyes on the lovely Werribee Mansion, taking in the hunted and stuffed animals as trophies on the walls....old time dress ups, rooms upon rooms, and halls, all feeling a bit Harry Potter, Hogwarts-ish....minus a bit of grandness and spookiness.....
..looking at the fate of the beloved pet dog....gave me an idea for the future of Long Long (!).....I will never have to say goodbye!!
.....and followed by a long winding walk through the beautiful grounds, sculpture gardens, many, many trees and birds and green, green, manicured grasses......we got married here, about 5 years ago and the reason we chose this place was so we could return year after year and enjoy the beautiful surrounds. It happens to be next to the Werribee Zoo, so today, while the sun was setting we watched 6 beautiful giraffe getting excited about their dinner in the distance...perhaps there is a weird irony that there are so many dead and stuffed, trophy animals right next door to an incredible collection of roaming African zoo animals....
..again, we have been lucky with unseasonally lovely sunny days........a beautiful start to a week that will no doubt, fly. Wishing you a good one.
