MCG and Meal

The ITA organised a trip yesterday to 'The G' where we saw Carlton defeat Melbourne. Fantastic atmosphere in a magnificent stadium. Setanta Ó Halpin was playing for Carlton and scored a goal. He has been playing very well this year, but this was one of his poorer matches. He still has difficulty shooting with the oval ball. In 2007, when I saw him play he was in the backs for that very reason. Now he is their full-forward. The ball did not 'stick' yesterday but that happens.
All bar one of the 'fellows' were there so it was great meeting up with them all. We went for a meal afterwards and then I went back with Matt, Cheryl and kids from Ontario. Had a nice brunch with them this morning before returning to Warrnambool. We are all going to Australia versus The All Blacks on July 31, as the whole family are Rugby fans. It was nice to spend time and get to know them better. It was also nice talking to the other 'fellows' as we have many experiences, both good and bad, that are common.
