Another rainy day, starting to get a little fed up of the weather now, but not to be deterred we head back on the tram into the city centre for a day exploring the museum, however, this was not to be so. A tram derailment forced us to get off by the aquarium, so what should have been an easy journey turned into a wet, soggy journey to nowhere. We walked the length of flinders street, but with so many side streets and pedestrian crossings, this took a while. Eventually we got to Swanson street, ready to gets on another tram, but because of the derailment everything was in chaos, the trams were so busy we couldn't get on huge first one that arrived, we waited and waited for another, but by now they boys were fed up, so we decided to cut our losses and get some lunch. Convenience was top of the agenda, so we headed to the nearest mcdonalds and treated the boys to a happy meal each! Gethin's first ever mcdonalds!! But the sickness bug caught up with us, and this time it was Archie, and not sickness but diarrhoea :( Gethin however was keen to go to the museum still, but as Sarah and Calum were in work we had no real choice to take Archie home. However, we were now right in the city centre, and amid the tram chaos this was easier said than done. We managed to negotiate the busy streets to the correct tram line and made it home. Sarah managed to finish early so we borrowed her car and went for a spin to st kilda and Brighton beach. The rain held off for enough time to have a wander on the beach and skim some stones with gethin, but we soon had to head back to the car to stay dry!
