Goodbye to Mum
This is a top pick! Mum and I drove back to Melbourne via the Pink Lake which is an interesting little crusty salt pool thing in the middle of no where. It's dried up a lot of the time and the pinkness comes from the beta carotene in the algae. You learn something new ...

Chapter 15: Back to the beach!
This is a top pick! I spent the rest of Thursday afternoon walking around downtown Melbourne. It's a clean, modern downtown area with some great shopping opportunities, but I decided it really could be anywhere. Like Toronto, for example. The afternoon was notable, ...

Hello Possums
This is a top pick! A... Many people we spoke to in Sydney assured as that we'd find Melbourne has a much more English feel to it. This has certainly been true; it's been cold, windy and wet. Thankfully though we escaped the flash floods that struck a couple of days before ...
Ashes are ashes
