During the school holidays we popped down to Melbourne.
|
Chillin in Chiltern VIC. |
It was a long trip so we stopped overnight in Tarcutta in a poxy motel.
The following day, stopped at very historic and well preserved Chiltern. Lunch was in Avenel at a pub - always a good place to wander around, have a bit, and play some pool (see the pic).
|
Serious sh-t in Avenel VIC. |
Melbourne is great. Trams are huge fun, it seems like King Street Newtown for kilometres.
|
Our home in St Kilda. Just brilliant. |
We did a house swap - some strangers stayed in our home, and we stayed in theirs. The home was pretty spectacular, an old townhouse in St Kilda. It had a renovated back end, with floor to ceiling glass two storeys high, and a projector hooked up to an X-box. The boys were in heaven playing Minecraft.

Brighton beach |
Day 1 - we went to Brighton beach. Nice views of Port Philip bay.

On the way back from Brighton on the train |
We got to Brighton on an old style modern train - single decker, no interior doors.
|
I popped out for a quick ride in the arvo - St Kilda. |

Old Melbourne Gaol |
Day 2 - it rained a bit, so we went to old Melbourne gaol, got locked up, sat in on a trial of Ned Kelly then had an ice cream.

Jumping around the gaol walls. |
