MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING

Yes folks....tonight I went and saw Shakespeare's "Much Ado about Nothing".... a very silly but enjoyable comedy...with my good friends Phil and Lucy. It was on at Cloudhill....with the most beautiful gardens in the hills near where we live....it was held in the open ampitheatre and we were blessed with a most gorgeous evening....it has been quite warm here in Melbourne today but is always a few degrees cooler in the hills. So armed with some yummy goodies to eat and drink, we headed off to sit on the grass, enjoy each others company and watch the play. Beforehand and during the intermission, we enjoyed a wander around the gardens...for those living in Melbourne or visiting, they are WELL worth a visit....


There are many "garden rooms" throughout the property and as you wander along the different paths, you are led off into other beautiful areas....and there are some wonderful sculptural elements throughout including many decorative gates...so much inspiration!

I just love these mosaic urns....so tempting to try mosaics....no Lisa....no....no more hobbies!!!!!

What a great setting for an enjoyable night with friends, entertainment and fine food. It will be on our 'must see' list of places to go when in the area. Take care.
