Well damn! We got here early this morning after traveling for more than 30 hours. And look what we found! We found the 17th !  It wasn't lost afterall! Sadly, though, this means we actually lost the 16th instead ... so sad. We have spent today recovering from the long flight by eating our way through speciality doughnuts  (creme brulee stuffing with caramel topping, chocolate cake with candied hazlenuts), wonderful mussels (in a cream, coconut, tomato and chili broth), and the speciality coffees of Melbourne.  Mark is now swimming at the pool before working out and I will be getting a massage in a short time to loosen up my stiff muscles - perhaps I will find the 16th after that massage. I now at least we will find ascrumptious dinner.  Melbourne is very similar to SF, PDX and Seattle with numerous restaurants, cosmopolitan speakers and bicyclists and activities everywhere.  Spent some time at the huge city market.  We do always love those....We will be spending the day at the botanical gardens tomorrow and then will be flying on to the Whitsunday Islands.  I expect we will find a fish or two there, perhaps the 16th also.
