On the weekend we went to Werribee Park Mansion to see a concert. Each year there is a French Film Festival held in Melbourne, and each year they release a compilation recording of current French artist’s songs. I always love the eclectic French music, but this year was the first concert featuring some of the artists all the way from France. Given that I have every CD since the first one released in about 2005, I just had to go to this concert.
The venue was spectacular – set in the grounds of a Victorian mansion, which also has on its grounds a world-class open range zoo and a 5-star hotel and spa. We’ll save the zoo safari and spa visit for my birthday 🙂 but we enjoyed an afternoon of great music, perfect weather and beautiful surrounds.
I took a walk through the mansion and took lots of photos of the lovely old house, which has beautifully and faithfully restored with lots of lovely old furniture and decor.

Thank you, I could have spent all day photographing the place, and in fact will go back again with a better camera. These pics were taken on my iPhone.
