Catch a rising star
Graduating artists shine in a stella finale performance season at the National Institute of Circus Centre in Prahran from November 23 to December 3, 2011. Ticketing is available and bookings may be made www.nica.com.au For general enquiries telephone (03) 9214 6975.
One heck of a place
I refer to Phillip Island where there is coastal-style adventure, wildlife galore, and such an array of local foods and wines. Fishing is one of the popular pastimes. Grab a rod, check out the type of bait which is recommended and with sea breeze in your face, go out after the big ones. If you are really keen, try one of the charter boats on offer at Rhyll and San Remo.
