Melbourne - done

Finally got to Melbourne at 7.30 pm on Wednesday – a couple of hours late but never mind.  We had to pick up our key from another site and chose to walk the 2 km dragging our suitcases in 27 degree heat.  So, we have some calories in the bank!

A bit cloudy and very windy for our first day on Melbourne – Allan went off early to his conference and I just pottered around the shops until he got back at 8 pm.   Had to be a bit restrained due to luggage constraints and, after all, it was just day one of 36!

We had a quick dinner at Hungry Jacks and then a short walk before heading back.  Scary fact about Melbourne – lots of cafes and fast food outlets now list the kilojoules next to the price.  Puts you off an Aussie burger when they tell you it has 3745 kJs!

Just sitting at the airport now waiting to check in. London here we come!
