Yesterday we traveled by tram from our stay at The Element Hotel in Richmond to our house sit in Burwood, both suburbs of Melbourne. We walked about 10 mins from the tram stop and were warmly greeted by our homeowner.
We chatted and then went over her welcome guide and all the information it contained. Her 11 year old granddaughter was emceeing and playing in a violin recital, so she attended while we started to get to know “our” new pets, Jaffa, the dog, and the two cats, young Crumble, and the older, largest cat we’ve sat for, Minty.
Jaffa loves to cuddle and makes little snorting noises when he sleeps. Minty seems pretty chill but will cuddle as well. Crumble is a sweet cuddler as well but also loves to explore and play. He will keep us amused and on our toes while we’re here.
Today, after seeing our homeowner off, we caught up on work, laundry, and did a small grocery shop. Tomorrow, we’ll have our daily routine established and will start seeing what we can see in the area and in downtown Melbourne.
