Tassie by the sea!
Our last day in Melbourne was windy but sunny and after several hours at the internet café sending the last blog and sorting out our finances, etc, Rebecca came to collect us from Bonbeach. After a wee chat with a couple of the Melbourne politicians, we were treated to oysters and mussels at Rebecca and Shaun's beautiful flat in Docklands. It is on the fourteenth floor of a skyscraper overlooking the city and the views are amazing. We had such a ...

Hello, person I've never met before - High Five!!
... secretary at the clinical school. And I don't think anyone could ask for a friendlier welcome. In the space of a few minutes I already felt more welcome than I have at many of my Edinburgh uni placements - the attitude here being "Ah great, you got here ok! Let's get you sorted!" rather than "Oh... great... you're here. Well, I guess we'd better sort something for you."
I was given a mammoth "Safety in practice" document to go and peruse for the next hour or so (and it took ...
