Day 6 - Mt Dandenong & Lygon St

We went to Mount Dandenong and our first stop was at Sassafras where Miss Marples famous scone is. The crowd was so long that we had to wait 45 minutes for a table. We got tired of waiting so left without sampling the scones. Instead we had some Dutch mini pancakes called Poffertjes. It was a welcome delight as it was nice and hot off the pan and we topped it with maple syrup.

Our next stop was Sky High and the view was quite scenic. We could see Melbourne CBD in the distant horizon. By then, it was getting dark so we made our way to Belgrave where Puffing Billy, (steam train) is. I remember going on it 13 years ago with my brother. This time, there was no Puffing Billy in sight so we left.

We headed to Cafe Cavallino on Lygon St for some Italian food. The owner is a big Ferrari F1 fan thus the shop is filled with Ferrari F1 souvenirs and memorabilia. If you are a fan of Michael Schumacher you will find many photos of him. Cafe Cavallino makes good pizzas. The pizza base is good and the dough is nice and chewy. The ingredients used are very fresh and they are quite generous with the toppings. Service is good and the staff are very attentive. We didn't have to wait too long for our food and the price is very reasonable.

After dinner we headed to Brunetti cafe for dessert. Keith had a lemon cheesecake which was not overly rich and not too sweet. May Cy had an orange sponge cake which was done to perfection. I had the tiramisu but did not like it. It was slightly bitter and did not contain enough sponge fingers. It had no kick to it, lacking in the liquer/coffee department. I reckon my tiramisu and Keith's beats theirs anytime.

I developed a Starcraft Two website located here:

Starcraft 2
http://www.thedarkshrine.com

I am going to be adding many things to the site, such as replays, vods, maps, fpvods, live streams, tools, esports info and much more. There is a wiki there and really could use helpers to assist. I hope you people can register as my goal is for this site to be one of the best Starcraft 2 sites on the Internet. Please register soon as there will be a tournament. If you have any suggestions please feel free to let me know!

Thanks! Great board btw!

So I took the plunge -- bought myself a [url=http://www.ordio.com.au/products/Fatman-iTube-ValveDock-Carbon-Edition-2.html]Fatman iTube Valve Dock Carbon Edition[/url] and I've got to say I made out like a bandit. I actually listened to one at a friend's house several months ago and just couldn't get that sound out of my head because it blew me away. I searched online everywhere I could think of for a great deal and finally found it at [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Ordio[/url] in Westfield Bondi Junction. I called them first and asked a bunch of questions and everything was answered to my satisfaction so I went ahead and bought it. Shipping was very fast. Everything was as it should be. I'm pretty darn happy and I'm playing it right now. Not sure if they dispatch outside of Oz but you won't be sorry if they do.

Very much worth it...

In the more recent years though throwback jerseys, jerseys that are replicas of past teams and players have also become quite popular Then, companies should focus on health on their R&D purposes and align their product line accordingly, which can be named as pre-emption Who is talking letting the companies secrets out, who is giving co-workers negative feeling Most of us schedule our lives around our work, and get the living done in bits here and there, a 2 week vacation

LED flowering grow lights will produce light in the right
frequency and wavelength. The Decorative LED Lighting can be utilized in house lamps
to set a mood, to light up areas that need better lighting,
or just to make every day issues easier to see. However,
my husband had a little trouble tightening the screw
on the solar panel, so it tended to slip to less than an optimal angle.
