In actual fact, only my beautiful friend Sara is a true Melbournian. The other friends I caught up were actually friends from Brisbane who have moved to Melbourne.
On the Monday when I got to Melbourne I caught up with my good friend Shaun for dinner. Shaun and I went to school together and have done some awesome things together, along with some of our other friends, including a month long trip overseas in 2007/2008, some camping trips and schoolies! Shauny moved to Portland in Victoria for work in 2007 and after that we don't get to see each other as often as before. About six months ago he moved to Melbourne to work and so when I knew I was going down I organised to catch up with him for dinner.
I met up with him after mum and I went to the tennis and Shaun and I went for a walk along Southbank and ended up stopping for dinner at the Meat & Wine Company. It was a relaxed little place with a nice vibe and we enjoyed a really nice steak, a few beverages and had a really good chat! We then headed to my absolute favourite gelati place Benne Tutto. Then we went and sat down by the Yarra and continued to catch up!
On the Friday I had the chance to catch up with Sara and meet her beautiful six month old bub V. He was so gorgeous and had an infectious little smile!! He is totally going to be a heartbreaker!! We went had lunch at a little cafe in the Crown Complex and chatted.
While it was only short, it was still so fabulous to see her and catch up!
Then on the Sunday night I got to catch up with another school friends Polina and her hubby D. I always love catching up with her! P, D, my mum and I went for dinner at an Asian restaurant on Swanston - one of their personal favourites. While I was away another school friend of P and I's sent us both a text asking if we would be her bridesmaids. So P and I eagerly discussed how exciting it was. I think we bored mum and D! But too bad :P haha.
Shauny then came to the airport and said goodbye to mum and I on the Monday when we left. It was very sweet and lovely of him to make the effort. I'm looking forward to seeing him again soon when he is in Brisbane next month :)
xx love Breanna
