Melbourne Campgrounds - Reviews and Rates

All good things come to an end one day....even my time in Australia. A few guys from the Rock Tour group caught a flight back to Melbourne. Me, Antonio and Alana stuck together for our last days in Melbourne and did a fair bit of sightseeing, strolled around markets, had good food and a few drinks (I do suck at drinking games by the way - disast...

Got a few days to catch up on. First off, in the last post I was completely wrong - it was a cricket match between Victoria and Queensland we went to see at the MCG, and it was the one day final! The crowd was tiny, however and the game was pretty run of the mill, except it had quite a tense finish where the visitors (Queensland) snatched victor...

Another walking tour of the city brings me to the Victoria Market, Telstra Dome, Flagstaff Gardens, the Stock Exchange, Queen Victoria Gardens, and all the areas of downtown Melbourne. It's a very nice city and seems to be quite young, wealthy and happening. I meet up with Sarah and Antony (her work friend) and head out for a night on the town m...

February 12, Tuesday Melbourne is another fabulous city-a nice blend of old and new and a wonderful celebration of Victorian architecture in some of the old neighborhoods. I went on a bus trip out to the Bush (just about 35 miles outside of Melbourne) while Mom took the day off. It doesn't take long to get out of the settled areas. The ship was ...

Had fun in Melbourne. I started to drive again... be scared be very scared. We hired a car in Melbourne to do the Great Ocean Road - it ended up being an automatic which was a nice easy start to driving again. Sarah and Donovan are still alive but currently being treated for severe trauma... Torquay was lovely, could live there. Paddled in Bells...

Dusty and I were madly excited about the start of our holidays - which was much deserved for both of us. We were about to head off on a relaxing holiday after a year of ... well, so much. We left Melbourne on July 25th at 12.30pm. From Melbourne to Los Angeles, via Auckland. The high point was finally getting off the ground on this holiday. The ...

...Had to change hostels, accomodation in Melbourne's getting really booked up.. probably because of Easter.. but I've finally managed to get accomodation sorted until I leave on friday.. then got accomodation booked on Bondi Beach... which'll be nice.. I presume they've reopened the beaches now after the tsunami warning.. Met some really nice p...

Melbourne In der Hauptstadt von Victoria kommen wir zum Abschluss unserer zweimonatigen Australienreise zweimal vorbei. Zuerst als Zwischenstopp nach Canberra und den Snowy Mountains und dann nach unserer Rueckkehr von der Great Ocean Road (siehe nachster Eintrag). Wir uebernachten auf einem Campingplatz in einem Randbezirk von Melbourne und fah...

Melbourne is a great city, really growing on me, with loads going on, in Jan, before term started it was crazy, I attended Chinese new year, Australia Day, Open Tennis, and Aus vs SA one day cricket. I atteneded the Australian Open on possibly the hottest day I've ever experienced, it was blistering, play was suspended due to extreme heat, there...

M and I took the chance of an American holiday to go to Melbourne. I really liked Melbourne, it felt much more like a place I'd like to live than Sydney, though it wasn't as breathtakingly beautiful. We went to Victoria Market (highly recommended...they sell everything one can imagine) and to St. Kilda and spent the afternoon lying on the beach....
