http://muchaboutmelbourne.blogspot.com/
When we shifted to Melbourne our 5 daughters were under the age of 12 so that meant all of them were going to the same school. We not only had to find a suitable house for a family of 7 but also a school where we knew all 5 of the girls would be happy.
I plan to use this blog to show you some of the things in Melbourne we've experienced and enjoyed.
