Week 47 - St Kilda, Melbourne

Thursday 6th January, was our fifth wedding anniversary.  To celebrate, we left the kids with Grandma and caught a tram down to St Kilda... we thought we take our time and enjoy St Kilda, so we started off by walking down Fitzroy Street to see what we could find.  The first thing that got our attention was a cocktail happy hour sign outside the Waldorf Diner, and then a plush red velvet lounge - so we enjoyed a cocktail there.  We then continued our walk down to the end of the St Kilda Pier, where the St Kilda Kiosk has been restored to it's former glory after a fire about 8 years ago, there we enjoyed a Chandon and the above view!  We meandered back along the pier, and along the beachfront before heading over to Harley Court where another sparkling was in order for me and a boutique beer for Mike along with a delicious antipasto platter.  Then we headed down Acland Street to find a restaurant for dinner, and opted for Ciccolina's, an Italian place and thoroughly rich and delicious food.  We then wandered back towards the general direction of home, and jumped on and off a couple of trams to shorten the walk, and had a fantastic night.
Happy anniversary Mike, here's to the next five years (and the five after that, etc)!!
