Keith and I flew into Melbourne on Friday afternoon and Louise arrived at 10.00pm (our time), unfortunately she wasn't re-united with her luggage until late Saturday afternoon. It is great to have her join us for this part of the trip. The Sebel Hotel where we are staying used to be the head office of the Bank of Australasia, the restaraunt where they serve breakfast was the banking hall. There are some lovely old buildings in Melbourne but not the famous landmarks that Sydney has. Yesterday, (Saturday) we caught the tram to St Kilda Beach, it was like Whitley Bay on a stormy day. It was cold and windy and the sea was grey instead of its usual blue/green colour. There is a lot of activity going on in Melbourne because the World Swimming Championships are on at the moment and some of the events were taking place at St Kilda. The Australian Air Show is also taking place this week.
