We came to Victoria gardens with friends for a picnic in the park with the dog. The park is lovely and very peaceful and great for dog walkers. They also occasionally have events and gigs on at the park. We went to small print pizza I had the chicken pizza which was Cajun chicken and chilli pizza and my partner had the prosciutto pizza both very nice both were $22 which I think is very reasonable. You order in the pizza shop and then they bring it over to the park when it is ready. Really impressed will definitely return.

BOUNCE Glen Iris is a massive indoor trampoline park in Melbourne that provides an adrenaline rush for all ages. Being the first indoor trampoline centre in Australia, Glen Iris has hosted thousands of kids parties and countless amounts of jumpers. Imagine more than 50 interconnected trampolines with the Big Bag, Slam Dunk and Dodgeball courts rolled in. It’s also home to the famous BOUNCE X-Park obstacle course so you can get your ninja on! Decked out with performance grade trampolines, taste the rush of extreme sports and freestyle gymnastics without the hard landing. Whether you’re practising your aerial tricks or just getting a killer workout while you warp the laws of gravity, it’ll be pure awesomeness every time. Unleash your free spirit!

On my spring break I went to bounce. I am giving you 3 reasons why you should go to Bounce. Firstly the free jump is so fun you could jump how ever you want. Secondly the big bag is so soft when you jump. Finally the dodge ball area is amazing instead of hard flooring it’s trampolines. In conclusion I highly suggest you to go to Bounce. You’ll appreciate it !

As you walk along the meandering paths , they are enhanced by the trees. There are beautiful grassed areas and lots of garden beds in this park that is set in 19 acres. It is also home to one of the oldest conservatories in Victoria. In 1906, Malvern Council purchased an undeveloped land on the Gascoigne Estate. The area had formed part of a golf course that spanned over the nearby Hedgeley Dene Gardens. The park was laid out with its sportsground and recreational gardens in 1908. It is truly a stunning park... well worth visiting. How to get there? The nearest public transport services are: Tram route 5 along Wattletree Road Bus route 624 along Burke Road ...or you could simply walk there from Caulfield Station like I did.

Set within a stunning residential area, that is full of period homes, is this beautiful park that seems to fill in a space. If you look at the park on a map, it is unusually shaped.... as it meanders across about four streets. Before making my way here I had already spent time in nearby Central Park that was beautiful...while both parks are stunning... this one has an intimate feel. It almost feels as though you have stepped into a secret garden. In 1877, Edward Charsley purchased the land and named it after his birthplace in England. From 1902 to 1911 the grounds were used as a dairy farm. The waterholes and dam became a popular fishing and yabbying spot, known as Maidment’s Lakes. Malvern Council purchased 8.5 acres when the land was subdivided in 1911, using it as a quarry, then as a municipal tip, until it was cleared after the First World War. Returned soldiers planted Turkey Oaks, and the gardens were developed from 1924. It certainly has a unique history... it's very difficult to imagine this as a tip because it truly is so stunningly beautiful. It's well worth seeking out if you love gardens. The locals wandered through with their dogs or simply just spending time enjoying the surrounds. There are public toilets here, seating along the paths, plenty of bags on offer for the doggy-doo-doo and there are also water fountains.

Grattan Gardens connects Greville St with Commercial Road and the Prahran Market, so if you are visiting both, it's a nice walk between the 2 locations

We were visiting for the weekend and stopped by the shopping centre. The cinema complex is huge with 13 screens or more? (Didn’t see the Lux screens). There is a flat rate for tickets being $20 for what we were told. (I assume child tickets are different maybe?) There is plenty of room to sit and wait and plenty of options for snacks - although we didn’t purchase any snacks. The seating in the screen (5) was spacious with recliner chairs for everyone which was a nice treat. Plenty of space so don’t feel like you’re sat on top of the person next to you. Compared to what the costs of a ticket back in England costs this was great value for money.
