I’m trying to get to sleep as I lie on the bed at the hotel but the insistent pattering on the air-conditioner is keeping me awake… and Daniel (Tse) has the light on playing with his Zaurus with the light on, so I might as well blog from afar!
Melbourne has been an interesting experience so far - very modern and stylish, and oozing with pride. We had lunch at a delightful little bakery called Laurent Bakery; we then went to see the Pixar exhibition at Federation Square. We had a look at Melbourne Central followed by an hour of public transport confusion. We popped by the Docklands and it was positively unexciting… we’ll check it out again later cos we might not be looking at the right things. We had dinner at a French restaurant (called Aux Batifolle - excellent wine and creme brulee) and we decided to call that a day.
Two things I don’t like about this place so far: the trains and trams sure run on time but they don’t seem to ever go where you want them to go. Secondly, I swear we chose the worst few days weather-wise for a holiday.
Signing off…
