Its a Dog's Life

Hi Everyone,
While we were visiting Melbourne at Easter, we did a trip on the Ferry from Williamstown , up the Yarra River right into the heart of the city. We had our daughter and two Granddaughters with us, this was the first time for the girls on a boat. Beautiful weather on the day. When we returned to Williamstown, I went on the navy ship that is permanently docked there. It is now a museum with a great collection.

This is one way to see the sites of Melbourne

Or try the trams

A big day, little legs get tired

TIP OF THE WEEK:
Most of us have owned or do own a dog, which we love to take with us as a traveling companion. We owned a dog and she came with us on many trips in the caravan. If we went into a shop, she would sit outside and wait for us without a leash. If we went to the showers she would sit and wait outside, she has been known to try and get inside with us. Unfortunately it is getting harder to find places that will except pets while traveling. Some caravan parks now days want to see the pets vaccination papers, other parks won't let you leave your dog unattended at the caravan and more and more caravan parks just won't allow pets period!!!
A week ago I read a story where a truck driver was sacked because he had a dog in his truck with him. Company policy being that NO DOGS ON SITE. This poor driver had nowhere else to keep the dog and it was his traveling companion.
Have a safe and happy travels, cheers
