the site of our Federal Parliament.

‘Little Penguins’ at Melbourne Aquarium

We took a carriage ride around Victoria (Vancouver Island)
last year, still haven’t taken one around Melbourne.

at Melbourne and sailed up the Yarra River
and under West Gate Bridge.
For tennis fans.
Rod Laver Arena, in Melbourne Park,
home of the Australian Open since 1988…
and where we recently attended
Hugh Jackman’s Concert.

…in December a few years back.
