Monday 26th Feb:
Before we start we just have to say - so impressed with the message board this week, definately our favourite so far, cracked us up! The jokes, the rhyming slang, the wit....it was all hilarious! keep it coming...
We arrived in Melbourne about 6 am and as you can imagine we were pretty cream crackered! We were meeting Milla (family) at 7am so had an hour to kill. Got chatting to some guys who work for hostels trying to intice poeple to them who havn't booked accommodation, this was so funny as one of them looked as though he'd just rolled out of bed, unshaven with a dog in tow and one had the file-a-fax and was dressed to impress. Needless to say we chatted to the one with the dog!
Paul and Milla picked us up at 7 and Paul headed off to work after dropping us off at their apartment. Made pancakes for brekkie with syrup and ice cream, yum. We should mention at this point our bags are getting heavier which seems strange as we've only bought a can of hairspray! Milla took us into the city in a tram and we had a look round the shops and later that day, the moment you've all been waiting for.....we had our hair cuts! Both short and choppy, we really like them but finding it a bit unpractical and high maintenance.
Went to the pub in the evening with one of their friends, Cameron and had nice meal and few beers. From here we went to the night club called 'The Croft Institute' which was a bit creepy as had a hospital bed in the bathroom! Although considering we still hadn't slept it looked pretty tempting! This place also had bunsen burner taps on the bar, Doc B you'd be right at home! We met Andre the owner, really nice guy.
Eventually got to bed on an inflatable mattress - or should we call it the deflatable mattress as we woke up on a wooden floor, hip bones disjointed. (We're hoping this is nothing to do with our weight).
