Blog 6 Monday Tuesday


Reporting back whilst we have a few spare moments before Melbourne starts up (10am before anything gets going here) - last night's Moroccan meal at Docklands was also exceptionally good, so nothing new there. Dreary walk to and from and hardly worth the effort to go by tram for only 2 stops but once there it is picturesque. Sorry for no photos yet. Discovered that this student hostel/internet shop doesn't allow uploading of photos. What do they think we plan to upload?? So it will have to wait for higher technology in Canberra. This morning we plan to go to the War Memorial which is a huge classical edifice on a hill overlooking the city and has spectacular views.
I've forgone the mind-blowing experience of going to the highest floor in Melbourne with a glass-bottomed viewing platform - purely you understand for Richard's sake so will enjoy the more sedate view from the memorial. It puts our little Cenotaph into a back pocket in terms of care for the soldiers - that's for sure. Off now and will report back from pastures new.
