Read MoreAfter spending some time, getting our ‘creep’ on at J ward and Aradale we visited the lovely Alexandra Gardens Park. Small, but a lovely spot for a stroll. This pretty much brings me to the end of this trip, but don’t worry, tomorrow I’ll start on our next trip…Phillip Island. ~Julz

I wanted to create something a little bit cool and funky, so we filled some ice-cream waffle cones with gypsophilum and paper daisies Quite sweet aren’t they?
