Melbourne!


This is us on top of the ANZAC shrine.

This is the ANAZC shrine. ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. It was mostly dedicated to the soldiers in WWI. Inside was huge and you could go up to the top to look out or down into the basement to look at displays. On the main level there were flags and memorials to the soldiers.

Boats down by St. Kilda

Jenny and Ben finally arrived after a LONG journey to Australia!

Boxing Day Cricket at the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground) Australia was playing South Africa. We lost :(

MCG. It can hold up to like 90,000 people. When we were there, there were 65,000.

Federation Square.

City Circle tram in downtown Melbourne

Docklands.

The Kombi Van. Rowan and Nyoli picked us from the airport in their van. They were on holiday traveling around Victoria in their Kombi. It is a 1965 and it has a split windscreen which is special for that year. It was really nice!

In the Kombi!

Rowan and Nyoli driving us around Melbourne!
So that is Melbourne in a nutshell. All these posts are quite short since we did so much in a short amount of time! We were in Melbourne December 26th through the 28th. Jenny and Ben arrived the night of the 26th. Next stop after Melbourne...Tasmania!
