Find it I did. Went by St. Ali Coffee on my way to work today on the advice of a friend. Tried their expresso. Not much of an expresso drinker but I did like it: a very interesting taste. I may try their cappuccino next time.

The same market had a showcase of vintage cars maintained by enthusiast. I know a few people who would love to see this stuff. Not me, however. I wouldn’t know a Mustang from a Maserati.

Passed by some old-school “marketing” on my way home from the cafe this morning.

Bocce at Albert Park. Stunning day for it. Quite cold in the shade, but the Sun’s got that bite to it again, announcing that Spring is on its way.

Walked to work via St. Kilda Road today, which is a route I’ve not taken yet. Longer than my usual route, but was still very pleasant, until I had to cross Kings Way, which is a little stroady. Will file this route under “occasionally”.

May need to get a new kettle. In the meantime, coffee machine’s putting in double duties.

Looks like my touch-bar didn’t show up to work today.

Passed by some purple swamphens (or pūkekos for those across the Ditch) on my walk today. About three of them went by going the other way, just going about their business. Such interesting birds.

Got confirmation that I’ve been admitted into a very exclusive group: the cafe regulars Heidi recognises. Fellow members include a few other regulars, the cafe staff, and the lady who runs the milk-bar next door. Initiation involves getting one’s leg sniffed upon entry of Heidi.
