This amusing sign was in a coffee house in Metung when we were visiting old friends with my brother Simon and his wife Helen.
Metung is a town in East Gippsland region of Victoria, Australia. The town is 314 kilometres (195 mi) east of the state capital Melbourne and between the larger towns of Bairnsdale and Lakes Entrance. It is on a small peninsula 31 kilometres (19 mi) south-east of Bairnsdale, separating Lake King and Bancroft Bay on the Gippsland Lakes. At the 2006 census, Metung had a population of 1,207.
Metung is a popular holiday spot, near to larger towns but off any main routes itself. Many of the permanent inhabitants commute to work at Bairnsdale or Lakes Entrance.
The original inhabitants of the area—the Aboriginal Gunai or Kurnai people—told a story about an unusual group of rocks now found alongside the boardwalk in the Metung Marina on Bancroft Bay. This legend or fable indicates how greed will be punished.
The legend goes that some fishermen made a good catch and ate the fish around their campfire. The fishermen, however, did not share their catch with their dogs, despite having more than enough to eat. As a punishment, the women, who were guardians of social law, turned the greedy men to stone.
Originally there were three rocks found at this location that related to the legend, but two of them were destroyed during road works. The remaining Legend Rock is now protected.

I don't know exactly what this was but it tasted like a creamy pea foam topped with a mild cheese and bacon. Served in a Chinese style soup spoon.

India Day 9 - Khajuraho
The walls of the 1000 year old Hindu Templesat Khajuraho are covered in intricate carvings, some of them from the Kama Sutra. I think this elephant finds it amusing to watch this couple practising! The Mughal emperor used elephants to execute prisoners ... by crushing them underfoot (which is what the elephant is also doing))!!

I found this on my walk ... an abandoned truck in the woods. I took many shots as I walked around (carefully) and peeked inside. It looks like it has been here a long while. There is moss and rust growing on its parts. Amusing to see it on the screen. #cy365 day 268 'amuse yourself' Is that a phone number? lol
