melbourne here "I" come

Well, it has been a LONG time coming but finally for the first time this mother of two is flying solo for 5 days to reacquaint herself with the adult world where people linger in shops (lots of shops) and then spontaneously decide to have a coffee and just linger there too. Oh Yes, I am going to a place where conversations can be had, heard and finished, where people go out for a meal in funky places where there are no children  - where people stay up late and sleep in and then decide to catch a film at the International Film Festival or drive out to the Modern Art Museum in a friend's vintage car 

and, 

all I need to pack and carry is what I need
