Melbourne Cup Fever

A day spent exploring Melbourne in the capable hands of our excellent tour guide and friend Shannon! We have been up the Sky Tower to the 88th floor of the Eureka building for panoramic views of the city, we've had good coffee, chocolate and ice cream, excellent Japanese food and been on the trams. Out of anywhere I have been so far, Melbourne is the first place I think I could live. It's very, very cool.

We saw these guys busking along the river, all dressed up ready for the Melbourne Cup horse race on Tuesday.
