We caught up with Kylie’s good friend Michelle for brunch this morning. Michelle was one of Kylie’s bridesmaids and we haven’t caught up since Ryan was a few months old.
The boat across to Tasmania didn’t leave until 21:00 so we had some time to kill after lunch so we went to a shopping centre to see a movie.
Ryan went to sleep in his pram so we thought we might be in luck. Unfortunately he woke up just after we sat down in the cinema!! He was good enough to let us watch the first hour before we had to leave.....
The movie was Date Night, a comedy starring Steve Carell from 40 Year Old Virgin, Evan Almighty and more recently the Get Smart movie. The bits we saw were pretty funny so we’re keen to see the rest of it at some point.
We had fish and chips for tea down at Port Melbourne. It was a little cloudy and drizzling but it wasn’t too cold. We could just see the Melbourne CBD in the distance:
After passing through security we waited for over 2 hours in the car on the pier waiting to board the boat. Silly me had the CD player on to keep Ryan amused (without the ignition fully engaged due to the build up of exhaust fumes) and the battery went flat. Apparently it wasn’t the first time this had happened and the crew organised a jump start. How embarrassing.....
We had a deluxe cabin (one of the highest classes of cabin) with a queen , ensuite, lounge, fridge and two big windows looking out over the front of the boat.
