..........Well Melbourne.......
It certainly started badly.....we were given keys to a 10 bed dorm which when we got in there had no beds free........hmmm we kinda thought 'here we go' but to be fair they sorted it out and in the end we were given a 10 bed dorm to ourselves, so we were quite happy!! WE even managed to play '805' cricket haha lots of innings over our 10 days.
Our 1st few days we generally were walking around Melbourne getting to know the place and we visited the Area where all the stadiums are bunched together( Oz open tennis,MCG and Swimming stadium) so that was good and who would have guessed that our gamble to buy tickets to the one day final ended up pitting us against the arrogant Aussies....And boy didint we show 'em! What a day it turned out to be....winning in the last over and finding ourselves on telly loads of times!!! One of the big memories of the trip!!
We also ventured to a few pubs and clubs as there were deals that really couldnt be turned down....and lots of good memories from them too...met a great bunch of guys though too including Laura, Kayleigh, Simone and Simon....You guys are absolute legends!!!!
We also found time to do some fitness by doing a couple of runs around the river which was very nice, Federtion square is a good photo oppertunity as it is very futuristic and also we visited St kilda when the Mardi Graas festival visited there...was a good day apart from the winds which spoilt it slightly, especially for Dan who ended up in emergency eye ward after a grain of sand had scracthed his eye...bless him!!But it was the strongest winds iv ever witnessed lol!!!
Melbourne in the end has been our favourite city overall with most things to do and general location and weather!
