We arrived in Melbourne late last night and had a great nighttime tour of the city, since our plane got in late. The city lights were beautiful and we drove through their "rainbow tunnel bridge," all aluminum but lit up different colors of the rainbow.
This morning we woke up late, had a leisurely breakfast with Grandma and then started off for a tour of the city. We started off with the Brighton beach boxes - changing sheds near one of the most famous and beautiful beaches in Melbourne. And each currently sells for only a million dollars or so... As you can see, their owners want to make sure everyone can see their beach box!
We then headed into the city proper to catch a walking tour...which we then missed because I got distracted. We took our own walking tour instead, walking past most of the building and landmarks and taking the extra time to go into the gold rush museum, walk through the botanical gardens and have a drink at a rooftop bar with a nice view of the city. We had beautiful weather today to enjoy both the city and the beach, before an evening in to prepare for an early morning for tomorrow's tour.
