We can meet at the museum entrance, say 1030 or so if that is good for everyone.

Yes, I'm pretty sure it is, so I'm going in by train (ugh, but parking will be a problem).

sounds like about 8 of us,not sure as Andy said he was coming but hasn't posted for a while and I thought Janet was coming too.Linda was going to contact Annette and Angela,but she has had a lot going on at the moment so hasn't really had a chance.Sue if we know which train you will be on we will be at Dandenong station when it gets there and you can stick your head out of the carraige so that we will know where you are Very Happy

Well, there were four of us, Carol, Linda, Judith and myself. We looked around the museum, then we went into the information centre where I was finally able to answer my question as to the date we arrived in Melbourne.

Linda found a folder on the hostels, but as I had already established through the archives, there was nothing on Altona until 1969

We are hoping to have a get together at Eastern Beach in Geelong in the warmer weather, and hope more of you will be able to make that.
