Happy Birthday Wayne!

Last night we went to our friend Wayne's 30th birthday. He held the party at the Campus Club at Griffith Uni. Not a bad setup there, they had this awesome deck overlooking the bush. Apparently it's a whole lot nicer than the Campus Club Geoff and Wayne used to frequent in their earlier uni days. It was good to catch up with Wayne and some other friends. They had a bar tab running which was an added bonus. :-)

Yesterday morning I went with my Mum to a garden show over at Mount Cootha gardens. It was amazing to see the amount of energetic people at 8.30 on a Saturday morning pushing and shoving to get the best plants. I wasn't going to buy anything there but ended up buying a Venus Fly Trap... it was just too cute to pass by. As we were leaving we noticed this massive plant growing in a pond outside the show. The leaves, I swear were the size of rubbish bin lids and the flowers were the size of dinner plates! Like something you'd expect to see in the depths of the Amazonian forest. Very cool. :-)
