Day 6: July 29th
Depart for Melbourne from Cairns
Dinner at Spaghetti Tree
Hired. Tired and Hungry. Or is it Tungry?
Half Day Marvellous Melbourne City Sights Tour
Ditch the bus and walk around town
First stop: Fitzroy Gardens
View from Bolte Bridge
View from the other side of Bolte Bridge
Australia's only observation wheel, The Southern Star (394 ft tall), there are only three in the world. Sorry, this was the best picture I could get. The tour was mostly just us riding around the city in a charter bus quickly passing by a bunch of monuments, historical buildings, and shopping/business centers. This is why we ended up ditching the tour later on.
See? Bored to sleep.
Last stop before we ditched: Shrine of Remembrance
First stop on our own personal tour: street eats of Melbourne!
Munching on a spinach and cheese triangle in front of the giant vase of gladioli
N for Nguyen, nikka!
Yarra River
Chinatown
There are two sweets that Giang and I cannot resist whenever we hit up a chinatown: sweet buns and egg tarts. mmm
Graffiti alley down Hosier Lane
Neeeat
12 Apostles Tour
The tour took us along the Great Ocean Road where we passed through Bells Beach, Memorial Arch, Lorne & Anglesea, Otway rainforest, Wildlife viewing, the 12 Apostles, Loch and Gorge, and London Bridge.
One of the beaches, can't remember which
Otway Rainforest
At the Wildlife viewing spot there was a guy passing out seeds so tourists could play with the birds
They were everywhere!
Highlight of the trip, the 12 Apostles!
I forgot what this is called... but it's pretty
London Bridge really did fall!
Ending the tour with us watching the sunset at London Bridge
