| Now we're back in Essendon, at Maribyrnong
Park, which features another playground and a rotunda in
the middle of a small ornamental lake. |
 |
 |
Adjacent is the Boathouse
Cafe Restaurant, serving meals, coffee and cake, soft
drinks and ice cream. There's outdoor seating for sunny
days to enjoy the river vista, and boats and canoes can be hired here. |
| This area is a favourite haunt of the river ducks, and most times
you will see several of them swimming around here. |
 |
 |
Further along we pass the
terraces, providing tiered seating for spectators of sports events on the
river. Past the terraces, the parkland narrows to a footpath
beside the roadway of the Boulevard. |
| The flat green fields of
Aberfeldie Park are across the road on our right, the
river on our left. On a still day when the water is
glassy, the reflections here are quite beautiful. |
