I arrived in Melbourne after a longer than expected bus journey (14.5hrs), due to a leak over the driver's head which meant we had to spend 2 hours going back on ourselves and changing buses. The weather in Melbourne was generally cold and wet, but the place is famous for having four seasons in one day and I experienced this during my trip with weather ranging from beautiful blue, sunny skies, to thick storm clouds and heavy rain. A day trip along the Great Ocean Rd, to see gorgeous views of rugged coast line and amazing rock formations protruding from the sea was a real highlight. I liked the variety of old and new buildings in Melbourne and enjoyed going to a few galleries and tourist sites. Views from the highest tower in Melbourne - the Eureka tower - were stunning, as was the 'Edge' experience which is a 3m squared glass box that actually moves out from the edge of the building with you standing it, so you can see the street directly beneath you!
