More Lilydale Hot Air Balloons

Another photo of the hot air balloons getting ready to take-off from a misty Lilydale Memorial Park.

Lilydale Hot Air Balloons

On an early morning expedition today we had a surprise. As we came past the Lilydale Cemetery and Memorial Park we saw three hot air balloons being prepared for take-off in the fog.

What a fantastic start to any day! The sight of balloons always brings a smile to my face – even if I see them on the way to work.

Park Hyatt and St Patrick’s Cathedral

Park Hyatt and St Patrick's Cathedral

The spires of Melbourne’s Catholic St Patrick’s Cathedral acts as a stunning backdrop to the Park Hyatt’s more modern tower. Taken from the room that the CannibalRabbits celebrated their wedding anniversary.

Anniversary 2011

To celebrate our 4th Anniversary we spent a rainy night at the Park Hyatt in the city. A wonderful view out across Parliament Place to the back of the Victorian State Parliament and Melbourne’s CBD.

A lovely room, and fantastic company. Thank you Mrs CannibalRabbit for four wonderful years, and here’s looking forward to a lot more.

Mmm, Lean Cuisine

Lean Cuisine

The plastic, pre-packaged Lean Cuisine “meals” are unappetising to me at the best of time. That was before I saw a giant vat in Pakenham labelled “Lean Cuisine”, yum yum! For some reason I get a mental image of something getting squirted out of the vat on to a plastic tray and being stuffed into a box.

Now it probably tastes lovely but does this really send out the right message? The Leggo’s vat I can understand – that’s probably full of tomato sauce, so that makes sense. Stacks of giant Lean Cuisine boxes painted on the side of the warehouse, good idea. A giant vat labelled with the name of something that is supposed to be solid, umm …

One thing is sure neither of them stack up against the Campbell’s Soup Can in Shepparton.
