I'm sitting here programming, drinking guava juice and listening to the Cat Empire (the best Aussie band ever) and it suddenly occurred to me that although I'm excited about going to Ireland tomorrow, I'm also glad to be returning to Melbourne. I'm in a bit of a Melbourne love-buzz at the moment, enjoying the wonderful stuff that the city and the place has to offer: the coffee, the conversation, the music and the atmosphere. Melbourne is beautiful in spring with the light drizzle of rain fluttering at the window against the tea green trees which seem to be swaying to 'The Wine Song'.
Our brew party went off without a hitch on Saturday last! About 20 of you showed up and the beer all turned out well.
For anyone who couldn't make it, there is always next time!!
So, in saying all that, we are excited about our trip, heading home to Ireland!! We leave tomorrow afternoon on a crazy 22 hour flight to Dublin where it will be Autumn and where the stout is flowing. More details on our trip tomorrow.....
