Hi All,
This is a quick post as we are in yet another bad connected internet cafe. We will try to do a better one when we get back to Sydney.
We arrived in Melbourne 2 days ago. The hotel we are staying in is very nice - very different to the outback! We have explored the city - it feels like you are in London, where we are staying could be Greenwich!
Yesterday we were put in gaol!!!!! We went to the old Melbourne gaol, it was actually very interesting and they had a lot of good displays. Even I (Jen) wasn't bored by this one. We got all the down lo on Ned Kelly - only in Oz can the most notorious criminal be elevated to hero!!!!
Today we have seen the non existant Grand Prix track (serously there is minimal evidence it is even held there!). Rob thinks we were just in the wrong place, I think the ozzies don't really care too much about motor sport! We had lunch in the casino. Rob won $10 from a wheel of fortune type game. I tried to play a pokie but really we were just pressing buttons at random.
Tonight we are meeting up with Daniel (to those of you who remember him!) and he will drive us around the area.Â
Tomorrow I am driving the Great Ocean Road as Rob is too young! I am very scared at this prospect.
Hopefully will see some koalas
Love Jen & Rob xxx
