Melbourne Day 4 - St Kilda's, South Bank, Federation Square & Sofia's...

I love Sunday Markets in Australia! I'm glad that we are staying at St. Kilda's as there is a Art & Crafts Market there every Sunday! So off we went to browse at all the knick knacks first thing in the morning...

It's a nice and sunny day and Lil' Angel is happy!

Lil' Angel and me having our breakfast while walking and browsing...

St. Kilda's Beach in the background...

The handicrafts...

Nice window peelies...

Lil' Angel enjoyed browsing the crafts too...

There was the Melbourne Marathon that morning...go, runners go!

At the jetty...

At the Beach enjoying the sea view and listening to the waves gently lapping the beach...

Lil' Angel is feeling the heat...

Where's my cap?

Anyone seen my cap? It's pink and it was here just a minute ago...

The Luna Park Guy in the day...

After walking around St. Kilda's, we went to Crown Casino to meet Daddy's friends - Bart & family for lunch at one of the cafes...

Since we were earlier than them, we checked out the shops and restaurants in the casino. Look at all the juicy ribs at the display window!

Lil' Angel looking at both the ribs and her reflection...

Guess what she saw next...

Lobsters! I asked her if she wanted to eat the lobsters, she nodded her head...

Since Lil' Angel wanted to run around, we brought her outside...

It is a nice day outdoors...but it got pretty warm...

Much needed shade from the trees...

Lil' Angel playing with her stroller...

She enjoys turning it round and round...

Pushing the stroller with Daddy...

Hey Mate...smile...we are on camera...

Lil' Angel was fascinated by the seagulls...

Bart & family are here...let's go for lunch!

Yummy looking cakes...

Mommy's seafood aglio olio...not too bad...

Touristy picture taken near the carousel at South Bank...

Golden Bees attacking the building! Ruuunnnnnnn...

Lil' Angel enjoying the Boost smoothie...

Sharing with Daddy...

It's so delicious that she decided that she wanted the whole cup for herself!

Yet another Sunday Market at the Arts Centre....

I love these Markets...there are just so many interesting things to see...

This is Lil' Angel's new friend - Lil' Isabella. They are both about the same age...only difference by a week! Don't we look like we have a pair of twins?

Flinders Street Station in the background...

We are at the Federation Wharf...

Walking towards the playground...

Federation Square...

We reached the playground...finally!

Lil' Angel is deciding what she wants to play with first...

The yellow slide first!

The red one looks more fun!

I think I am done with the slides...

What should I play next?

Walking on the twigs is fun...

Playing with the twigs is fun too!

Let me try the wobbly bridge...

Wow...this is challenging...

Lil' Angel can walk on the rickety bridge on her own! Clap clap!

Daddy walking behind, just in case...

Family picture before leaving the playground...

The three sweet girls - Lil' Isabella, Lil' Alexandra & Lil' Angel...

The Gals & Their Daddies...

The Yarra River...

Lil' Angel on the carousel...

She will wave to Daddy each time she passes him...

After a full day of fun...we were hungry! So we drove to Camberwell for italian fare at Sofia's! Cheap and yummmmmy! Plus, their portions are HUGE...as in H-U-G-E! I am not exaggerating...

Mommy's Chilli Mussel Soup...slurpppppp...

Daddy's Marianara...and this is entree size! Even Daddy cannot finish this so it must be HUGE! Mommy & Lil' Angel helped too. There were just too many prawns...think our cholestrol level must had been rocket high that night!

Time to eat! Bon Apetit!
