I actually managed to miss the correct day, but I've changed my computer time to Samoa so I remember that somewhere it is still 15th October 2007 - after all, Penny doesn't care what the date is.

One of her favorite environments is Darebin Parklands, an area of bushland right in suburban Melbourne. Thanks to the foresight and persistence of the founders of the park we have the opportunity to imagine what the area around northern Melbourne might have looked like two hundred years ago.
Forty years ago it was a stinking rubbish tip and a sea of weeds and today it looks like this:

Hehehe, you kind of like blended into the ground in the 1st picture. Funny! Mommy going to do the OB demo with me now. Will post it either tomorrow or the day after.

We're looking forward to your OB video!
