Gorgeous morning for the #Moomba parade! Oh...wait....
(It really is the most perfect morning for it.)
Very pleased to see that #Moomba parade is cancelled on Monday. The risks to people in these temps, being outdoors with little cover, are just too high.
Sad for everyone involved, of course.

Day 1624 #Pedal2Work

Quick and pleasant ride into #Melbourne CBD this morning, initially along the main Yarra trail and then having to divert via the Southbank bypass due to #Moomba activities ramping up. Could be something else to ride to over the weekend with the kids. πŸ˜€πŸš²πŸ‘

Some photos my Aunt took at the 1984 #Moomba parade. I *think* this is the year she took me to Moomba, all I remember is bums. So many bums. I was too short for that crowd haha

Michelle Yeoh received a top award from the #Moomba festival in #Melbourne years before the members of the Academy recognised her talents at #Oscars2023.

Perhaps #MoombaFestival might finally be recognised as a trend setting event?

The top of #queenstreet #melbourne is a delight on a sunny day!

The buildings are awesome and I love the colours the architects have chosen at the time of planning to reflect the cosmopolitan nature of the city.

It’s the final day of #Moomba today, which is one long-weekend of the year that celebrates this gorgeous city with street processions and river sports such as skiing and attracts thousands to the city surrounds.

This vantage point is right near the #queenvictoriamarket.
