I like the weekends!


4 Things to do in Melbourne this weekend:

1. Don't miss Lamington Drive's new exhibition, '100 Kites' by Clemens Habicht. Exhibition runs until October 10.

2. How about a lovely dinner with friends at Birdman Eating on Gertrude St (across the road from Lamington Drive, the gallery above). I had dinner there last night and enjoyed all the shared plates we ordered. We had the Warm calamari, kipfler, chorizo & lemon salad, Spiced lamb skewers with smokey eggplant and the Zucchini & fetta Fritters. Yum!

3. Rose St. Artists' Markets are now open every Saturday and Sunday from 11am - 5pm. If you love all things handmade and meeting creative Melbourne people who make their own products then you will love Rose St.

4. Party at High Vibes Street Festival on High St in Northcote this Sunday from 12noon - 10pm.
