Another lazy lay in was followed by a laneway breakfast and a wander up Hosier Lane to see the artwork.
I then gave B two choices for the day: Melbourne zoo or Queen Victoria Markets. He chose the zoo which also seemed to be a popular spot with every single annoying family in Melbourne. So many people, so little concept of queuing. So many parents, so little control of the screaming offspring. At least the animals were cute – well the ones that weren’t hiding from the badly behaved kids anyway. Poor little platypus. 
This evening we had our shortest gap between shows – just 30 mins – and we also had to make a 17 min walk between venues in that gap. It was a bit too hectic for me and I don’t think I would do it again unless the venues were closer together!
Impromptunes at the Trade Hall were excellent as always. I yelled out my suggestion of “platypus assassin” but they went with the title of “…and then I found $50” for tonight’s one night only show! I can’t recommend seeing these guys enough, we usually go to 2-3 shows every visit. We were front row again next to the musical director.
We then walked aaaaaallllll the way down to Flinders Street (way too quickly for my liking, I am not a runner) to get in line for entry to Joel Creasey’s “drink, slay, repeat” show at the Forum Theatre. As always he was a massive bitch and the show was hilarious.
Dinner was later than usual (9:20pm) and we were lucky that China Red agreed to feed us as long as we ordered quickly. Mmmm dumplings.
